[PATCH RFC net-next v4 2/7] net: introduce skb_crc32c_csum_help

[Davide Caratti <dcaratti@redhat.com>]

skb_crc32c_csum_help is like skb_checksum_help, but it is designed for
checksumming SCTP packets using crc32c (see RFC3309), provided that
libcrc32c.ko has been loaded before. In case libcrc32c is not loaded,
invoking skb_crc32c_csum_help on a skb results in one the following
printouts:

warn_crc32c_csum_update: attempt to compute crc32c without libcrc32c.ko
warn_crc32c_csum_combine: attempt to compute crc32c without libcrc32c.ko
