Subject: [PATCH] crypto: move Kconfig 842 to end of list, default to N

Move the 842 compression alg choice to last in the list, so it's
not in the middle of LZO/LZ4/LZ4HC.  Change its default to N, as it
is a very slow alg, which generally should only be used with
compression hardware that's capable of doing it much faster.
