loongarch/crypto: Clean up useless assignment operations

Both crc32 and crc32c hw accelerated funcs will calculate the
remaining len. Those codes are derived from
arch/mips/crypto/crc32-mips.c and "len -= sizeof(u32)" is not
necessary for 64-bit CPUs.

Removing it can make context code style more unified and improve
code readability.

It's ultimately unrelated to the width of the running CPU, but rather 
the LoongArch ISA specification. You should mention that because the 
LoongArch ISA manual implies that CRC instructions are only available on 
LA64-compatible implementations, the code can assume 64-bit operation, 
so the 32-bit codepath can be guaranteed to execute only once.

"Remove it to improve readability." should do it?

I was wrong in assuming that LA32 must contain CRC insns that operate on 
at most 32 bits. In fact this is wrong -- the LA32 subset omits a lot of 
32-bit operations for no apparent reason (perhaps implementation 
simplicity but outsiders cannot confirm). So by definition the code 
cannot be ported to LA32, and the changes are correct.

But for the same reason, the commit message is misleading. See above.
And with the nits addressed:

That's why I didn't have sent a patch to MIPS group.

Hi, Yuli,

The code is fine to me, please change loongarch to LoongArch in the
subject, and update your commit message with Xuerui's review in V2.
