The optimised crc32c implementation depends on VMX (aka. Altivec)
instructions, so the kernel must be built with Altivec support in order
for the crc32c code to build.

order for the crc32c code to build.
Thanks for that, looks good.

Thanks. Herbert, expecting you'll pick this up.
In that case Anton can you please post it to linux-crypto?
Sorry that's my fault, will repost to linux-crypto.
