[PATCH v5 0/2] add crc64 calculation as kernel library

[Coly Li]

This patch set adds basic implementation of crc64 calculation as Linux
kernel library. Since bcache already does crc64 by itself, this patch
set also modifies bcache code to use the new crc64 library routine.

Currently bcache is the only user of crc64 calculation, another potential
user is bcachefs which is on the way to be in mainline kernel. Therefore
it makes sense to make crc64 calculation to be a public library.

CRC calculation consistency testing is not trvial, it will be another
separated patch set and not in this series any more.
