When the source scatterlist is a single page, optimize the first hash step of adiantum to use crypto_shash_digest() instead of init/update/final, and use the same local kmap for both hashing the bulk part and loading the narrow part of the source data. Likewise, when the destination scatterlist is a single page, optimize the second hash step of adiantum to use crypto_shash_digest() instead of init/update/final, and use the same local kmap for both hashing the bulk part and storing the narrow part of the destination data. In some cases these optimizations improve performance significantly. Note: ideally, for optimal performance each architecture should implement the full "adiantum(xchacha12,aes)" algorithm and fully optimize the contiguous buffer case to use no indirect calls. That's not something I've gotten around to doing, though. This commit just makes a relatively small change that provides some benefit with the existing template-based approach.

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.
