Yep, I verified the module names on ARM and Power. There really wasn't
much I could key off of other than the name string.

Did some quick tests on my end with both scsi_debug and FC hardware. I
verified that performance went up as I loaded crct10dif-pclmul while the
test was running:

[   23.488059] CRC T10 DIF calculated using crypto hash crct10dif-generic
[  156.922455] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Enabling DIX T10-DIF-TYPE1-CRC protection
[  221.577731] CRC T10 DIF calculated using crypto hash crct10dif-pclmul

R  63.60 MB/s, W  61.00 MB/s, IOPS  486 | Ops     4460, Rec  0, Err  0
R  61.80 MB/s, W  62.00 MB/s, IOPS  493 | Ops     6926, Rec  0, Err  0
R  62.60 MB/s, W  60.80 MB/s, IOPS  494 | Ops     9396, Rec  0, Err  0
R  59.40 MB/s, W  58.80 MB/s, IOPS  482 | Ops    11804, Rec  0, Err  0
R 151.40 MB/s, W 155.40 MB/s, IOPS 1216 | Ops    17883, Rec  0, Err  0
R 165.00 MB/s, W 166.40 MB/s, IOPS 1327 | Ops    24520, Rec  0, Err  0
R 175.00 MB/s, W 177.40 MB/s, IOPS 1417 | Ops    31604, Rec  0, Err  0
R 185.80 MB/s, W 188.60 MB/s, IOPS 1507 | Ops    39137, Rec  0, Err  0
R 200.60 MB/s, W 203.00 MB/s, IOPS 1629 | Ops    47284, Rec  0, Err  0

Note that in this case the CRC is calculated twice per I/O (block layer
and scsi_debug).

I'll do some more testing over the weekend...
