Hi,

I haven't had time to review your patch properly yet.
But I have two minor comments.

Firstly, could you please base your work on Patrick McHardy's nf-next-2.6
tree or at least Dave Miller's the net-next-2.6 tree. At this stage it just
looks like you'll need to re-diff the patch.

You need

select CRC32C

here.
