"the paper"

[lolbinarycat]

src/specialized/pclmulqdq.rs references "the paper" several times, and as far as i can tell, none of the files in this repo mentions any paper whatsoever.

Based on the source code comments about the algorithm's implementation on Linux, the listed steps, and the values of the Kx constants, it seems very likely that "the paper" refers to "Fast CRC Computation for Generic Polynomials Using PCLMULQDQ Instruction", an influential 2009 whitepaper by V Gopal, E Ozturk, J Guilford, G Wolrich, W Feghali, et al., most of which were Intel engineers at the time.

Yep, that's correct @AlexTMjugador! If you want to send a PR to adjust the docs, would be happy to merge it!
