Eric Biggers 426370c860 RDMA/siw: Switch to using the crc32c library
Now that the crc32c() library function directly takes advantage of
architecture-specific optimizations, it is unnecessary to go through the
crypto API.  Just use crc32c().  This is much simpler, and it improves
performance due to eliminating the crypto API overhead.

help
This driver implements the iWARP RDMA transport over
the Linux TCP/IP network stack. It enables a system with a
standard Ethernet adapter to interoperate with a iWARP
adapter or with another system running the SIW driver.
(See also RXE which is a similar software driver for RoCE.)
The driver interfaces with the Linux RDMA stack and
implements both a kernel and user space RDMA verbs API.
The user space verbs API requires a support
library named libsiw which is loaded by the generic user
space verbs API, libibverbs. To implement RDMA over
TCP/IP, the driver further interfaces with the Linux
in-kernel TCP socket layer.
