Hello:

This patch was applied to netdev/net-next.git (main)

Make tcp-md5 use the MD5 library API (added in 6.18) instead of the
crypto_ahash API.  This is much simpler and also more efficient:

- The library API just operates on struct md5_ctx.  Just allocate this
  struct on the stack instead of using a pool of pre-allocated
  crypto_ahash and ahash_request objects.
