It's surprising to still see this new use of SHA-1 after so many people objected
to it in the v6 patchset.  It's also frustrating that the SHA-1 support is still
being obfuscated by being combined in one patch with SHA-2 support, perhaps in
an attempt to conflate the two algorithms and avoid having to give a rationale
for the inclusion of SHA-1.  Finally, new functions should not be added to
lib/crypto/sha1.c unless those functions have multiple users.
