Eric Biggers 2f22115709 lib/crypto: x86/blake2s: Fix 32-bit arg treated as 64-bit
In the C code, the 'inc' argument to the assembly functions
blake2s_compress_ssse3() and blake2s_compress_avx512() is declared with
type u32, matching blake2s_compress().  The assembly code then reads it
from the 64-bit %rcx.  However, the ABI doesn't guarantee zero-extension
to 64 bits, nor do gcc or clang guarantee it.  Therefore, fix these
functions to read this argument from the 32-bit %ecx.

In theory, this bug could have caused the wrong 'inc' value to be used,
causing incorrect BLAKE2s hashes.  In practice, probably not: I've fixed
essentially this same bug in many other assembly files too, but there's
never been a real report of it having caused a problem.  In x86_64, all
writes to 32-bit registers are zero-extended to 64 bits.  That results
in zero-extension in nearly all situations.  I've only been able to
demonstrate a lack of zero-extension with a somewhat contrived example
involving truncation, e.g. when the C code has a u64 variable holding
0x1234567800000040 and passes it as a u32 expecting it to be truncated
to 0x40 (64).  But that's not what the real code does, of course.
