Eric Biggers a7008584ab crypto: api - optimize algorithm registration when self-tests disabled
Currently, registering an algorithm with the crypto API always causes a
notification to be posted to the "cryptomgr", which then creates a
kthread to self-test the algorithm.  However, if self-tests are disabled
in the kconfig (as is the default option), then this kthread just
notifies waiters that the algorithm has been tested, then exits.

This causes a significant amount of overhead, especially in the kthread
creation and destruction, which is not necessary at all.  For example,
in a quick test I found that booting a "minimum" x86_64 kernel with all
the crypto options enabled (except for the self-tests) takes about 400ms
until PID 1 can start.  Of that, a full 13ms is spent just doing this
pointless dance, involving a kthread being created, run, and destroyed
over 200 times.  That's over 3% of the entire kernel start time.

Fix this by just skipping the creation of the test larval and the
posting of the registration notification entirely, when self-tests are
disabled.
