Turning on crypto self-tests on a POWER8 shows:
alg: hash: Test 1 failed for crc32c-vpmsum
00000000: ff ff ff ff
Comparing the code with the Intel CRC32c implementation on which
ours is based shows that we are doing an init with 0, not ~0
as CRC32c requires.
This probably wasn't caught because btrfs does its own weird
open-coded initialisation.
Initialise our internal context to ~0 on init.
This makes the self-tests pass, and btrfs continues to work.
