Subject: [RFC 2/2] GenWQE: Make use of the generic CRC kernel infrastructure

Instead of reimplementing the CRC, make use of the generic CRC kernel
infrastructure. Note that GenWQE seems currently the only one using
this particular polynomial.

This change requires a previous patch which adds the GenWQE crc32 to
the generic kernel crc32 support.
