Since skb_copy_and_hash_datagram_iter() is used only with CRC32C, the crypto_ahash abstraction provides no value. Add skb_copy_and_crc32c_datagram_iter() which just calls crc32c() directly. This is faster and simpler. It also doesn't have the weird dependency issue where skb_copy_and_hash_datagram_iter() depends on CONFIG_CRYPTO_HASH=y without that being expressed explicitly in the kconfig (presumably because it was too heavyweight for NET to select). The new function is conditional on the hidden boolean symbol NET_CRC32C, which selects CRC32. So it gets compiled only when something that actually needs CRC32C packet checksums is enabled, it has no implicit dependency, and it doesn't depend on the heavyweight crypto layer.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
