Hi Alan,

Look into the code in n_gsm and bluetooth code. The algorithm is the 
same, but except for the bit order it also is using a different 
polynomial. My current implementation has a fixed table. I could do the 
table generation runtime with the polynomial and the bit order as 
parameters. That would make it more general purpose.
