Tangential, but I've often wondered what are the upsides of keeping
CONFIG_CRYPTO_ALGAPI as a separate config option in the first place? Every
single item in crypto/ ends up "select"ing it (directly or transitively)
so it makes all sense to just do away with it and keep it == CONFIG_CRYPTO
in the Makefile, thusly:
NACK.  ALGAPI exists so that it can be built as a module, as
opposed to CRYPTO which is always built-in.  It's already
invisible to the user so I don't see why you have a problem
with it.
