crypto: cast5 - simplify if-statements
I noticed that by factoring out common rounds from the branches of the if-statements in the encryption and decryption functions, the executable file size goes down significantly, for crypto/cast5.ko from 26688 bytes to 24336 bytes (amd64). On my test system, I saw a slight speedup. This is the first time I'm doing such a benchmark - I found a similar one on the crypto mailing list, and I hope I did it right?
