Herbert,

Currently the CRC-T10DIF checksum is computed using a generic table lookup
algorithm.  By switching the checksum to PCLMULQDQ based computation,
we can speedup the computation by 8x for checksumming 512 bytes and
even more for larger buffer size.  This will improve performance of SCSI
drivers turning on the CRC-T10IDF checksum.  In our SSD based experiments,
we have seen in disk throughput by 3.5x with T10DIF.

This patchset provide the x86_64 routine using PCLMULQDQ instruction
and switch the crc_t10dif library function to use the faster PCLMULQDQ
based routine when available.

Will appreciate if you can consider merging this for the 3.10 kernel.

Tim
