[PATCH RFC 1/4] md/dm-integrity: replace async_tx with synchronous xor for journal

[Frank.Li@oss.nxp.com]

From: Frank Li <Frank.Li@nxp.com>

Remove the dependency on the async_tx framework from dm-integrity's
xor_journal() function.  The async_xor() + async_tx_issue_pending_all()
pattern is replaced with direct kmap_local_page() + memcpy() +
crypto_xor() + kunmap_local() per page, which is simpler and removes
the need for #include <linux/async_tx.h>.

async_tx adds significant complexity and maintenance overhead while
providing little practical benefit on modern systems, where RAID parity
computation is typically performed more efficiently by CPU-based XOR/PQ
implementations than by DMA engine offload.
