Sorry for the delay. The kernel robot figured out the problem
for me. It's the crypto_alg_tested call that causes api.c to
depend on algapi.c. This call is only invoked in the case where
the crypto manager is turned off. We could instead simply make
test larvals disappear in that case.

The delayed boot-time testing patch created a dependency loop
between api.c and algapi.c because it added a crypto_alg_tested
call to the former when the crypto manager is disabled.
We could instead avoid creating the test larvals if the crypto
manager is disabled. This avoids the dependency loop as well
as saving some unnecessary work, albeit in a very unlikely case.

Thanks for your patch, which is now commit cad439fc040efe5f
("crypto: api - Do not create test larvals if manager is disabled").
I have bisected a failure to mount the root file system on k210 to this
commit.
