Herbert and Evgeniy,
Sorry for late reply. Thanks a lot for your information and example, I
will work out the intel-specific implemetation. After internal
discussing and approval, I will post here for review again.

Because libcrc32c can be a module in original implemetation, so for
those other routine which call crc32c_le directly, this may not work for
them?
