Sorry, I just realized this isn't actually equivalent on big endian CPUs, since
the byte array produced by crypto_shash_digest() used little endian byte order,
whereas crc32c() just returns a CPU endian value.
And of course this broken subsystem uses u32 for the little endian values
instead of __le32 like the result of the kernel.
Not sure it's worth my time to continue to try to fix this subsystem properly.
