Change crc to be __le32, kill the casts and pass &crc in the last call.

You could to the same here, or make crc u32, remove the cpu_to_le32()
and use get_unaligned_u32(payload + length - 4) (or whatever it is called).

But it is much better to do:
	crc = crc32_le(~0, payload, length);
	if (crc != VALID_CRC32)
		res = _FAIL;

You can lookup VALID_CRC32, but it is crc32_le(0, "\xff\xff\xff\xff", 4);
