x86, hash: Swap arguments passed to crc32_u32()

... to match the function's parameters. While reportedly commutative,
using the proper order allows for leveraging the instruction permitting
the source operand to be in memory.

[ hpa: This code originated in the dpdk toolkit. This was a bug in dpdk
which has recently been fixed in part due to an earlier version of
this patch. ]
