crypto: crc32c - Remove more outdated usage information

Remove information from the crypto/crc32c.c file comment that is no
longer applicable now that nearly all users of CRC-32C are simply using
the crc32c() library function instead.  This continues the cleanup from
commit 0ef6eb10f2 ("crypto: Clean up help text for CRYPTO_CRC32C").
