Hi,

Kernel defines same polynomial for CRC-32 in few places.
This is unnecessary duplication of the same value. Also this might
be error-prone for future code - every driver will define the
polynomial again.

This is an attempt to unify definition of polynomial.  Few obvious
hard-coded locations are fixed with define.

All series depend on each 1/6 and 2/6.

This could be merged in two different merge windows (1st lib/crc and then
the rest) or taken through one tree.

It would be nice to get some testing. Only generic lib/crc, bunzip, xz_crc32
and Freescale's Ethernet driver were tested on HW.  Rest got just different
builds.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
