Min Zhou 2f16482202 LoongArch: crypto: Add crc32 and crc32c hw acceleration
With a blatant copy of some MIPS bits we introduce the crc32 and crc32c
hw accelerated module to LoongArch.

LoongArch has provided these instructions to calculate crc32 and crc32c:
        * crc.w.b.w    crcc.w.b.w
        * crc.w.h.w    crcc.w.h.w
        * crc.w.w.w    crcc.w.w.w
        * crc.w.d.w    crcc.w.d.w

So we can make use of these instructions to improve the performance of
calculation for crc32(c) checksums.

As can be seen from the following test results, crc32(c) instructions
can improve the performance by 58%.
