Convert alg_test_skcipher() to use the new test framework, adding a list of testvec_configs to test by default. When the extra self-tests are enabled, randomly generated testvec_configs are tested as well. This improves skcipher test coverage mainly because now all algorithms have a variety of data layouts tested, whereas before each algorithm was responsible for declaring its own chunked test cases which were often missing or provided poor test coverage. The new code also tests both the MAY_SLEEP and !MAY_SLEEP cases, different IV alignments, and buffers that cross pages. This has already found a bug in the arm64 ctr-aes-neonbs algorithm. It would have easily found many past bugs. I removed the skcipher chunked test vectors that were the same as non-chunked ones, but left the ones that were unique.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
