Re: [PATCH] pstore: fix crypto dependencies of 842/zstd compression

[廖威雄 <liaoweixiong@allwinnertech.com>]

In fast, there is no any failure while building or configuring on the 
newest codes.

The patch of commit 58eb5b670747 ("pstore: fix crypto dependencies") 
makes the pstore itself select the crypto core if PSTORE_COMPRESS is 
set. This fixes the dependence bug at all in my tests.
But this patch also turns the sub-options from 'bool' into 'tristate'. 
It's ok, but makes sub-options different between deflate, lzo, lz4, 
lz4hc and 842, zstd. So, my patch just keeps them in line.
How about to make all these sub-options as 'bool'? These compressions 
are just  function options but not module.  Otherwise, it's not about 
fixing crypto dependencies.
