What I don't quite understand is, that CONFIG_CRYPTO is also a bool,
its subparts are tristates however, and there is no problem involved
with these.
That's because neither CONFIG_CRYPTO nor any of the crypto modules
depend on another symbol that is itself tristate (and hence can be modular),
which is the case with all the problematic cases that have been posted to
lkml lately.
