No, what I mean is that whenever we l

I think you misunderstood my suggestion. The reason I asked
for this to be
From: Nicholas Bellinger
Hi Herbert and Co,
This series adds a struct crypto_alg->cra_check_optimized() that can be
optionally
used by crc32c.ko (and other algorithms) in order to make a request_module()
call
to load architecture dependent offload code for a libcrypto base algorithm.
