Subject: [PATCH 0/2] siw: Fix build failure for > v2.6.34 + add crc32c-intel.ko offload

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

Greetings Bernard and NetDev folks,

Attached are two patches for softiwarp/kernel.git, the first of which fixes a build
failure on > v2.6.34 kernels with ib_register_device(), and the second is the addition
of proper support for libcrypto crc32c-intel.ko using Nehalem SSE v4.2 instruction offload
which is an item that has been recently added into our LIO-Target v4.0.0-rc4 release
over on the linux-scsi list.

Please note that this code has only been compile tested so far, but I do plan to have
a deeper look at your teams work once I have a bit more free time on my hands.

Many great thanks for all of your efforts with IBM Software iWARP stack!
