Please update the comments in the corresponding assembly files too.

Also, this change doesn't really make sense because the assembly functions still
expect struct sha1_ce_state, and they access sha1_ce_state::finalize which is
not present in struct sha1_state.  There should either be wrapper functions that
explicitly do the cast from sha1_state to sha1_ce_state, or there should be
comments in the assembly files that very clearly explain that although the
function prototype takes sha1_state, it's really assumed to be a sha1_ce_state.

Likewise for SHA-256 and SHA-512.
