jbd2: switch to using the crc32c library

Now that the crc32c() library function directly takes advantage of
architecture-specific optimizations, it is unnecessary to go through the
crypto API.  Just use crc32c().  This is much simpler, and it improves
performance due to eliminating the crypto API overhead.
