Having said that I think this patch should remove this particular
trigger.  Unfortunately I couldn't find a more succinct way of
expressing this relationship: if ALGAPI is built-in because it's
selected by an algorithm, and CRYPTO_MANAGER is enabled then we
require CRYPTO_MANAGER to be built-in as well.

Evgeniy, please let me know whether this fixes the problem.
