From: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit c6ce9c5831cae515d375a01b97ae1778689acf19 upstream. The soft dependency on cryptomgr is only needed in algapi because if algapi isn't present then no algorithms can be loaded. This also fixes the case where api is built-in but algapi is built as a module as the soft dependency would otherwise get lost.
