Are there any use cases where a config (probably embedded) would wantq
CRYPTO_USER but not CRYPTO_NET?  Would seem a shame to pull in the entire
CONFIG_NET stuff just for what appears to me to be a few utility routines (I
know there's still a few people out there fighting kernel bloat).

In any case, I suspect that sort of restructuring will be 3.3 material - this does
look like the right fix for this merge window.
