The code comment says that the polynomial is x^16 + x^12 + x^15 + 1, but
the correct polynomial is x^16 + x^12 + x^5 + 1. Quoting from page 2 in
the ITU-T V.41 specification [1]:
2 Encoding and checking process
The service bits and information bits, taken in conjunction,
correspond to the coefficients of a message polynomial having terms
from x^(n-1) (n = total number of bits in a block or sequence) down to
x^16. This polynomial is divided, modulo 2, by the generating
polynomial x^16 + x^12 + x^5 + 1.
The hex (truncated) polynomial 0x1021 and CRC code implementation are
correct, however.

This will add the CRC calculation according
to the CRC ITU-T V.41 to the kernel lib/ folder.
This code has been derived from the rt2x00 driver,
currently found only in the wireless-dev tree, but
this library is generic and could be used by more
drivers who currently use their own implementation.
