Hi Krzysztof,

Some comments inline.

Add driver for using the Freescale/NXP Vybrid processor CRC block for
CRC16 and CRC32 offloading.  The driver implements shash_alg and was
tested using internal testmgr tests and libkcapi.

Generally have you measured the performance of this driver? Is it faster
than the software implementation?

Under certain circumstances a clk_prepare_enable might become expensive,
so it could happen that all this clk enabling/disabling takes longer
than the action you do in between. Using pm_runtime might help here.

You never set crc->processed_desc to anything, so this optimization
never triggers.

Unless properly implementing this skip-to-reinitialize-hardware really
brings a measurerable performance gain I would just drop this
optimization. In the end you only save a few register writes, but it
makes the driver more complicated.

These seem unnecessary. The crypto core will set these with similar
wrappers if unspecified.

+

Should be done before the shashes are registered.
