Herbert Xu 69c35efcf1 libcrc32c: Move implementation to crypto crc32c
This patch swaps the role of libcrc32c and crc32c.  Previously
the implementation was in libcrc32c and crc32c was a wrapper.
Now the code is in crc32c and libcrc32c just calls the crypto
layer.

The reason for the change is to tap into the algorithm selection
capability of the crypto API so that optimised implementations
such as the one utilising Intel's CRC32C instruction can be
used where available.

* Used by the iSCSI driver, possibly others, and derived from the

* http://linux-iscsi.sourceforge.net.
*
* Following the example of lib/crc32, this function is intended to be
* flexible and useful for all users. Modules that currently have their
* own crc32c, but hopefully may be able to use this one are:
* net/sctp (please add all your doco to here if you change to
