The NVM Express specification extended data integrity fields to 64 bits
using the Rocksoft parameters. Add the poly to the crc64 table
generation, and provide a generic library routine implementing the
algorithm.
The Rocksoft 64-bit CRC model parameters are as follows:
Poly: 0xAD93D23594C93659
Initial value: 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Reflected Input: True
Reflected Output: True
Xor Final: 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Since this model used reflected bits, the implementation generates the
reflected table so the result is ordered consistently.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
