Hi Pratik, and Chao,

To Pratik: erofs layout is almost determined from linux-4.19, and it is fine
           for this chksum field;

           Yes, just go with crc32c(). and it's very simple to implement :)

To Chao: Yes, I think that's ok as well, but we can do much simple in EROFS,
         and it won't break crc32c pipeline... (calculate in one crc32c function) :)
