No, unfortunately not.
In both cases, I get the following at the end:

But that would match my expectations, since it can't initialize the ext4 driver due to missing crc32 routines.

The output looks a bit suspicious:

>> [   71.943961] alg: No test for crc3<3rc32c-generic)
>>

Maybe there's an uninitialized string or incorrect formatting here?
