One of our client is using this layer for offloading the crc32c to our
dmaengine hw.

Is this going to be merged into the kernel?

I am not sure about it, but as what I thought is Linux kernel supports
many algos in async mode and sync mode, later client has to take care
which one they are going to use.
Any way this offload implementation is specific to Applied Micro
X-Gene SoC, where we have such a dmaengine can do CRC32c.

Cheers,
