powerpc 8xx: defconfig: slice by 4 is more efficient than the default slice by 8 on Powerpc 8xx.
On PPC_8xx, CRC32_SLICEBY4 is more efficient (almost twice) than CRC32_SLICEBY8,
as shown below:
With CRC32_SLICEBY8:
[ 1.109204] crc32: CRC_LE_BITS = 64, CRC_BE BITS = 64
[ 1.114401] crc32: self tests passed, processed 225944 bytes in 15118910 nsec
[ 1.130655] crc32c: CRC_LE_BITS = 64
[ 1.134235] crc32c: self tests passed, processed 225944 bytes in 4479879 nsec
With CRC32_SLICEBY4:
[ 1.097129] crc32: CRC_LE_BITS = 32, CRC_BE BITS = 32
[ 1.101878] crc32: self tests passed, processed 225944 bytes in 8616242 nsec
[ 1.116298] crc32c: CRC_LE_BITS = 32
[ 1.119607] crc32c: self tests passed, processed 225944 bytes in 3289576 nsec
