[PATCH] cksum: fix failure to diagnose read errors with crc32

[Pádraig Brady]

The default crc32 mode fails to diagnose read errors.

* src/cksum.c (cksum_slice8): Fix the check for read errors.
(cksum_pclmul): Likewise.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

 ** Bug fixes
 
+  cksum again diagnoses read errors in its default CRC32 mode.
+  [bug introduced in coreutils-9.0]
+
   install --strip now supports installing to files with a leading hyphen.
   Previously such file names would have caused the strip process to fail.
   [This bug was present in "the beginning".]
