Now crc_simd_body() in crc_x86_clmul.h is only called once
in a translation unit, we no longer need to be so cautious
about ensuring the always-inline behavior.

CRC_CLMUL was split to CRC_ARCH_OPTIMIZED and CRC_X86_CLMUL.
CRC_ARCH_OPTIMIZED is defined when an arch-optimized version is used.
Currently the x86 CLMUL implementations are the only arch-optimized
versions, and these also use the CRC_x86_CLMUL macro to tell when
crc_x86_clmul.h needs to be included.
is_clmul_supported() was renamed to is_arch_extension_supported().
crc32_clmul() and crc64_clmul() were renamed to
crc32_arch_optimized() and crc64_arch_optimized().
This way the names make sense with arch-specific non-CLMUL
implementations as well.

A CLMUL-only build will have the crcxx_clmul() inlined into
lzma_crcxx(). Previously a jump to the extern lzma_crcxx_clmul()
was needed. Notes about shared liblzma on ELF platforms:
- On platforms that support ifunc and -fvisibility=hidden, this
was silly because CLMUL-only build would have that single extra
jump instruction of extra overhead.
- On platforms that support neither -fvisibility=hidden nor linker
version script (liblzma*.map), jumping to lzma_crcxx_clmul()
would go via PLT so a few more instructions of overhead (still
not a big issue but silly nevertheless).
There was a downside with static liblzma too: if an application only
needs lzma_crc64(), static linking would make the linker include the
CLMUL code for both CRC32 and CRC64 from crc_x86_clmul.o even though
the CRC32 code wouldn't be needed, thus increasing code size of the
executable (assuming that -ffunction-sections isn't used).
Also, now compilers are likely to inline crc_simd_body()
even if they don't support the always_inline attribute
(or MSVC's __forceinline). Quite possibly all compilers
that build the code do support such an attribute. But now
it likely isn't a problem even if the attribute wasn't supported.
Now all x86-specific stuff is in crc_x86_clmul.h. If other archs
The other archs can then have their own headers with their own
is_clmul_supported() and crcxx_clmul().
Another bonus is that the build system doesn't need to care if
crc_clmul.c is needed.
is_clmul_supported() stays as inline function as it's not needed
when doing a CLMUL-only build (avoids a warning about unused function).

Solaris Studio is a possible example (not tested) which
supports the always_inline attribute but might not get
detected by the common.h #ifdefs.

This partially reverts creating crc_clmul.c
(8c0f9376f58c0696d5d6719705164d35542dd891) where is_clmul_supported()
was moved, extern'ed, and renamed to lzma_is_clmul_supported(). This
caused a problem when the function call to lzma_is_clmul_supported()
results in a call through the PLT. ifunc resolvers run very early in
the dynamic loading sequence, so the PLT may not be setup properly at
this point. Whether the PLT is used or not for
lzma_is_clmul_supported() depened upon the compiler-toolchain used and
flags.
In liblzma compiled with GCC, for instance, GCC will go through the PLT
for function calls internal to liblzma if the version scripts and
symbol visibility hiding are not used. If lazy-binding is disabled,
then it would have made any program linked with liblzma fail during
dynamic loading in the ifunc resolver.

crc_common.h depends on common.h. The headers include common.h except
when there is a reason to not do so.

This macro must be used instead of the inline keyword. On MSVC, it is
a replacement for __forceinline which is an MSVC specific keyword that
should not be used with inline (it will issue a warning if it is).
It does not use a build system check to determine if
__attribute__((__always_inline__)) since all compilers that can use
CLMUL extensions (except the special case for MSVC) should support this
attribute. If this assumption is incorrect then it will result in a bug
report instead of silently producing slow code.

Both crc32_clmul() and crc64_clmul() are now exported from
crc32_clmul.c as lzma_crc32_clmul() and lzma_crc64_clmul(). This
ensures that is_clmul_supported() (now lzma_is_clmul_supported()) is
not duplicated between crc32_fast.c and crc64_fast.c.
Also, it encapsulates the complexity of the CLMUL implementations into a
single file and reduces the complexity of crc32_fast.c and crc64_fast.c.
Before, CLMUL code was present in crc32_fast.c, crc64_fast.c, and
crc_common.h.
During the conversion, various cleanups were applied to code (thanks to
Lasse Collin) including:
- Require using semicolons with MASK_/L/H/LH macros.
- Variable typing and const handling improvements.
- Improvements to comments.
- Fixes to the pragmas used.
- Removed unneeded variables.
- Whitespace improvements.
- Fixed CRC_USE_GENERIC_FOR_SMALL_INPUTS handling.
- Silenced warnings and removed the need for some #pragmas

When ifunc is supported, we can define a simpler macro instead of
repeating the more complex check in both crc32_fast.c and crc64_fast.c.

|
crc64_fast.c was updated to use the code from crc_common.h instead.
