crypto: broken Kconfig option CRYPTO_NULL2

Hi Herbert,
your commit 149a39717dcc ("crypto: aead - Add type-safe geniv
init/exit helpers") has shown up in Linux next (i.e., next-20150818)
adding the following lines of code to crypto/Kconfig:
@@ -150,12 +152,15 @@ config CRYPTO_GF128MUL
[...]
+config CRYPTO_NULL2
+ select CRYPTO_ALGAPI2
+ select CRYPTO_BLKCIPHER2
+ select CRYPTO_HASH2
+
There are two problems with the option above: (1) It does not have a
type, (2) it selects other options without being a tristate/boolean,
see below:
scripts/kconfig/mconf Kconfig
crypto/Kconfig:159:warning: config symbol defined without type
crypto/Kconfig:160:warning: config symbol 'CRYPTO_NULL2' uses select,
but is not boolean or tristate
crypto/Kconfig:161:warning: config symbol 'CRYPTO_NULL2' uses select,
but is not boolean or tristate
crypto/Kconfig:162:warning: config symbol 'CRYPTO_NULL2' uses select,
but is not boolean or tristate
If you want to, I can send a trivial patch making it a boolean without prompt.
I detected this issue with undertaker-checkpatch (undertaker.cs.fau.de).
Kind regards,
Valentin
