Subject: [PATCH] crypto: crc32c - Remove another outdated comment
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2026 13:56:59 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260316205659.17936-1-ebiggers@kernel.org> (raw)

This code just calls crc32c(), which has a number of different
implementations, not just the byte-at-a-time table-based one.

Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@kernel.org>

This patch is targeting crc-next
