Mikko Ylinen 412a384aad versions: update kernel-confidential to Linux v6.16.1
Linux v6.16 brings some useful features for the confidential guests.
Most importantly, it adds an ABI to extend runtime measurement registers
(RTMR) for the TEE platforms supporting it. This is currently enabled
on Intel TDX only.

The kernel version bump from v6.12.x to v6.16 forces some CONFIG_*
changes too:

MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE was dropped in favor of more config
choices. The equivalent option is MHP_DEFAULT_ONLINE_TYPE_ONLINE_AUTO.

X86_5LEVEL was made unconditional. Since this was only a TDX
configuration, dropping it completely as part of v6.16 is fine.

CRYPTO_NULL2 was merged with CRYPTO_NULL. This was only added in
confidential guest fragments (cryptsetup) so we can drop it in this update.

CRYPTO_FIPS now depends on CRYPTO_SELFTESTS which further depends on
EXPERT which we don't have. Enable both in a separate config fragment
for confidential guests. This can be moved to a common setting once
other targets bump to post v6.16.

CRYPTO_SHA256_SSE3 arch optimizations were reworked and are now enabled
by default. Instead of adding it to whitelist.conf, just drop it completely
since it was only enabled as part of "measured boot" feature for
confidential guests. CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRC32_S390 was reworked the same way.
In this case, whitelist.conf is needed.
