Subject: [PATCH] pstore: fix crypto dependencies without compression

Commit 58eb5b670747 ("pstore: fix crypto dependencies") fixed up the crypto
dependencies but missed the case when no compression is selected.

With CONFIG_PSTORE=y, CONFIG_PSTORE_COMPRESS=n  and CONFIG_CRYPTO=m we see
the following link error:

fs/pstore/platform.o: In function `pstore_register':
(.text+0x1b1): undefined reference to `crypto_has_alg'
(.text+0x205): undefined reference to `crypto_alloc_base'
fs/pstore/platform.o: In function `pstore_unregister':
(.text+0x3b0): undefined reference to `crypto_destroy_tfm'

Fix this by selecting CONFIG_CRYPTO unconditionally.
