Currently, there's only check for fast crc32c implementation on X86, based on the CPU flags. This is used to decide if checksumming should be offloaded to worker threads or can be calculated by the caller. As there are more architectures that implement a faster version of crc32c (ARM, SPARC, s390, MIPS, PowerPC), also there are specialized hw cards. The detection is based on driver name, all generic C implementations contain 'generic', while the specialized versions do not. Alternatively the priority could be used, but this is not currently provided by the crypto API. The flag is set per-filesystem at mount time and used for the offloading decisions.
