+libxfs: do not try to run the crc32selftest
+
+Even though the crc32selftest is natively compiled (because it is to be
+executed), it fails in cross-compilation as the host may lack the
+required headers, like uuid/uuid.h (e.g. in a minimal environment).
+
+Moreover, running the crc32selftest natively is completely wrong,
+because it passing on the host does not mean it would still pass n the
+target (because endianness or bitness or alignment differences).
+
+So, just disable running the crc32selftest altogether.
+
+Note that there's a remaining bug-in-hiding, because the crc32 table
+generator is natively built, but with the target CFLAGS.
