Nevermind, I see what's going on now.  Your reference to the lack
of a CRC instruction utterly confused me.

The fact that len -= is unnecessary has nothing to do with whether
there is a CRC instruction.

Please modify your patch description so that it is not needlessly
confusing.  You should simply state that len -= is unnecessary
because you only test whether the relevant bit is set in len for
the tail case.

Thanks,
