2021-05-06	lib: crc8: pointer to data block should be const	Richard Fitzgerald	1	-1/+1
	crc8() does not change the data passed to it, so the pointer argument should be declared const. This avoids callers that receive const data having to cast it to a non-const pointer to call crc8().

2011-06-03	lib: crc8: add new library module providing crc8 algorithm	Arend van Spriel	1	-0/+101
	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.
