Subject: [PATCH 2/2] crypto/crc32c: Add crc32c_cra_check_optimized for crc32c_intel

From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@...ux-iscsi.org>

This patch adds crc32c_cra_check_optimized() for use by the new
struct crypto_alg->cra_check_optimized() API caller in order to
call request_module() to load crc32c_intel.ko for CRC32C instruction
offload when available on CONFIG_X86 w/ SSE v4.2 compatiable hardware.
