Herbert,
It seems like we haven't folded in changes for adding
soft dependency to crc32c to ensure that the accelerated
version is loaded when available.
I take a crack with the patch below.

CRC32C: Add soft module dependency to load other accelerated crc32c
modules
We add the soft module dependency of crc32c module alias
to generic crc32c module so other hardware accelerated crc32c
modules could get loaded and used before the generic version.
