<crypto/sha.h> already has the declarations for both SHA-1 and SHA-2, including
SHA-256. So I'm not sure a separate sha256.h is appropriate. How about putting
these declarations in <crypto/sha.h>?
The problems with that is that the sha256_init, etc. names are quite generic
and they have not been reserved before, so a lot of the crypto hw-accel
drivers use them, for private file-local (static) code, e.g.:
[hans@shalem linux]$ ack -l sha256_init

(in case you do not know ack is a smarter grep, which skips .o files, etc.)
All these do include crypto/sha.h and putting the stuff which is in what
was linux/sha256.h into crypto/sha.h leads to name collisions which causes
more churn then I would like this series to cause.
I guess we could do a cleanup afterwards, with one patch per file above
to fix the name collision issue, and then merge the 2 headers. I do not
want to do that for this series, as I want to keep this series as KISS
as possible since it is messing with somewhat sensitive stuff.
And TBH I even wonder if a follow-up series is worth the churn...

Hans
