  • The brcm80211 driver in staging tree uses a crc8 function. Based on
    feedback from John Linville to move this to lib directory, the linux
    source has been searched. Although there is currently only one other
    kernel driver using this algorithm (ie. drivers/ssb) we are providing
    this as a library function for others to use.
