The sysfs file /sys/fs/btrfs/FSID/checksum shows the filesystem checksum
and the crypto module implementing it. In the scenario when there's only
the default generic implementation available during mount it's selected,
even if there's an unloaded module with accelerated version.

This happens with sha256 that's often built-in so the crypto API may not
trigger loading the modules and select the fastest implementation. Such
filesystem could be left using in the generic for the whole time.
Remount can't fix that and full umount/mount cycle may be impossible eg.
for a root filesystem.

Allow writing strings to the sysfs checksum file that will trigger
loading the crypto shash again and check if the found module is the
desired one.

Possible values:

- default - select whatever is considered default by crypto subsystem,
            either generic or accelerated
- accel   - try loading an accelerated implementation (must not contain
            "generic" in the name)
- generic - load and select the generic implementation

A typical scenario, assuming sha256 is built-in:

  $ mkfs.btrfs --csum sha256
  $ lsmod | grep sha256
  $ mount /dev /mnt
  $ cat ...FSID/checksum
  sha256 (sha256-generic)
  $ modprobe sha256
  $ lsmod | grep sha256
  sha256_ssse3
  $ echo accel > ...FSID/checksum
  sha256 (sha256-ni)

The crypto shash for all slots has the same lifetime as the mount, so
it's not possible to unload the crypto module.

Can't you use sysfs_streq() here?
