[PATCH] Bluetooth: hci_bcsp: Use the shared CRC-CCITT byte helper
From: Xuhua Zhang
Date: Tue Sep 08 2026 - 02:08:43 EST
bcsp_crc_update() processes each byte as two nibbles, requiring two
dependent table lookups for every header and payload byte when CRC is
enabled.
The existing crc_ccitt_byte() helper implements the same reflected
polynomial with one lookup per byte. Use it instead of the private
nibble-based implementation and select CRC_CCITT for BCSP-only UART
configurations as well. The initial CRC value and final bit reversal
remain unchanged.
This replaces the private 16-entry table with the shared 256-entry table,
trading table size for fewer dependent lookups. An exhaustive comparison
of all 65536 CRC states and 256 input bytes matches both the old code and
a bitwise reference implementation.
