Subject: [PATCH 4/4] lib/raid6: cleanup gen_syndrome function selection
Reorders functions in raid6_algos as well as the preference check
to reduce the number of functions tested on initialization.
Also, creates symmetry between choosing the gen_syndrome functions
and choosing the recovery functions.
