Unless something else has changed, this needs to be inside ifdefs, as discovered
in the proposed patch series last year:

for sha1_sse3_glue.c:
#ifdef CONFIG_AS_SHA1_NI
        X86_MATCH_FEATURE(X86_FEATURE_SHA_NI, NULL),
#endif

for sha256_sse3_glue.c:
+#ifdef CONFIG_AS_SHA256_NI
+       X86_MATCH_FEATURE(X86_FEATURE_SHA_NI, NULL),
+#endif
