Subject: [PATCH] lib/crc32.c: fix trivial typo in preprocessor condition

Whether crc32_be needs a lookup table is chosen based on CRC_LE_BITS.
Obviously, the _be function should be governed by the _BE_ define.

This probably never pops up as it's hard to come up with a configuration
where CRC_BE_BITS isn't the same as CRC_LE_BITS and as nobody is using
bitwise CRC anyway.

<rant>
While skimming through some mailing lists, I learned that not only is
this a safety critical bug[tm], it likely will also lead to a car crash
unless fixed[1]. We can't let that happen, can we?
As the safety experts are now for more than one month working on a patch
already, it's maybe time to save them some effort.
