755efdc3c4 Btrfs: Drop the hardware crc32c asm code
This is already in the arch specific directories in mainline and
shouldn't be copied into btrfs.

d352ac6814 Btrfs: add and improve comments
This improves the comments at the top of many functions.  It didn't
dive into the guts of functions because I was trying to
avoid merging problems with the new allocator and back reference work.

extent-tree.c and volumes.c were both skipped, and there is definitely
more work todo in cleaning and commenting the code.

2b1f55b0f0 Remove Btrfs compat code for older kernels
Btrfs had compatibility code for kernels back to 2.6.18.  These have
been removed, and will be maintained in a separate backport
git tree from now on.

3117a77370 Btrfs: Add support for HW assisted crc32c
Intel doesn't yet ship hardware to the public with this enabled, but when they
do, they will be ready.  Original code from:

Austin Zhang <austin_zhang@linux.intel.com>

It is currently disabled, but edit crc32c.h to turn it on.

a5eb62e345 Btrfs: Endianess bug fix for v0.13 with kernels
Fix for a endianess BUG when using btrfs v0.13 with kernels older than 2.6.23

Problem:

Has of v0.13, btrfs-progs is using crc32c.c equivalent to the one found on
linux-2.6.23/lib/libcrc32c.c Since crc32c_le() changed in linux-2.6.23, when
running btrfs v0.13 with older kernels we have a missmatch between the versions
of crc32c_le() from btrfs-progs and libcrc32c in the kernel.  This missmatch
causes a bug when using btrfs on big endian machines.

Solution:
btrfs_crc32c() macro that when compiling for kernels older than 2.6.23, does
endianess conversion to parameters and return value of crc32c().
This endianess conversion nullifies the differences in implementation
of crc32c_le().
If kernel 2.6.23 or better, it calls crc32c().
