    Added support for HW computed CRC using Arm ACLE intrinsics.
    These are built-in intrinsics available for ARMv8.1-A, and
    onwards.
    These intrinsics are enabled via '-march=armv8-a+crc' compile
    switch for ARMv8-A (supports CRC instructions optionally).
    
    HW CRC support is enabled unconditionally in BL2 for all Arm
    platforms.
    
    HW CRC calculation is verified offline to ensure a similar
    result as its respective ZLib utility function.
    
    HW CRC calculation support will be used in the upcoming
    firmware update patches.
