It's upstream changeset ef19454bd437b2ba14c9cda1de85debd9f383484.

[LIB] crc32c: Keep intermediate crc state in cpu order

crypto/crc32.c:chksum_final() is computing the digest as
*(__le32 *)out = ~cpu_to_le32(mctx->crc);
so the low-level crc32c_le routines should just keep
the crc in cpu order, otherwise it is getting swabbed
one too many times on big-endian machines.
