Ah, umh, no.  That "const u32 (*)[256] tab" does not look correct:


crc32_le_generic(9)                                   Kernel Hacker's Manual                                  crc32_le_generic(9)

NAME
       crc32_le_generic - Calculate bitwise little-endian Ethernet AUTODIN II CRC32/CRC32C

SYNOPSIS
       u32 __pure crc32_le_generic (u32 crc, unsigned char const *p, size_t len, const u32 (*)[256] tab, u32 polynomial);

ARGUMENTS
       crc         seed  value  for computation.  ~0 for Ethernet, sometimes 0 for other uses, or the previous crc32/crc32c value
                   if computing incrementally.

       p           pointer to buffer over which CRC32/CRC32C is run

       len         length of buffer p

       tab         little-endian Ethernet table

       polynomial  CRC32/CRC32c LE polynomial



I guess a proper fix is needed.
