docs: clean up and add rest of CRC functions to kernel-api.rst
Add the rest of the CRC library functions to kernel-api. - try to clarify crc32() by adding '@' to a function parameter - reorder kernel-api CRC functions to be less random - add more CRC functions to kernel-api - correct the function parameter names in several places Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
