The chacha-p10-crypto module provides optimised chacha routines for
Power10. It also selects CRYPTO_ARCH_HAVE_LIB_CHACHA which says it
provides chacha_crypt_arch() to generic code.
Notably the module needs to provide chacha_crypt_arch() regardless of
whether it is loaded on Power10 or an older CPU.
The implementation of chacha_crypt_arch() already has a fallback to
chacha_crypt_generic(), however the module as a whole fails to load on
pre-Power10, because of the use of module_cpu_feature_match().
This breaks for example loading wireguard:
jostaberry-1:~ # modprobe -v wireguard
insmod /lib/modules/6.8.0-lp155.8.g7e0e887-default/kernel/arch/powerpc/crypto/chacha-p10-crypto.ko.zst
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'wireguard': No such device
Fix it by removing module_cpu_feature_match(), and instead check the
CPU feature manually. If the CPU feature is not found, the module
still loads successfully, but doesn't register the Power10 specific
algorithms. That allows chacha_crypt_generic() to remain available for
use, fixing the problem.
