Hi Bruce,

       <para>
        Add support for <productname>ARMv8</productname> hardware
        <acronym>CRC</acronym> calculations (Yuqi Gu, Heikki Linnakangas)
       </para>

Could I please ask for a third author credit for this one?  See
commits 1c72ec6 (and follow-up a7a7387) which extended ARM CRC support
to non-Linux systems.
