Subject: [PATCH] [RFC] crypto: sha1/arm - fix build with CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL

Building cryptodev-2.6 tree with CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL=y and
CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA1_ARM=y give following error:

AS arch/arm/crypto/sha1-armv4-large.o
arch/arm/crypto/sha1-armv4-large.S: Assembler messages:
arch/arm/crypto/sha1-armv4-large.S:197: Error: r13 not allowed here --
`teq r14,sp'
arch/arm/crypto/sha1-armv4-large.S:377: Error: r13 not allowed here --
`teq r14,sp'
arch/arm/crypto/sha1-armv4-large.S:469: Error: r13 not allowed here --
`teq r14,sp'

Build can be fixed with adding '.arm' at head of sha1-armv4-large.S.
However I'm not sure if this correct fix as this is my first stab
at arm assembler and I could not get CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL boot up
on 'qemu-system-arm -M vexpress-a9' to verify correctness. So this
is only build tested.

That fixes the problem for the assembler, in that you have forced it to
treat the code as 32 bit (non-thumb).

I know you can mix thumb and non-thumb code, and it seems that as long as
all parties know what code is in what mode it should work.

Unfortunately I don't know enough about it be sure this is a valid fix.
I think we need a long term arm expert to pass judgement on this one,
unless of source you manage to get it tested. I don't have any thumb
targets I can try it on, sory,

Cheers,
