CRYPTO_LIB_CHACHA_GENERIC doesn't need to select XOR_BLOCKS. It perhaps was thought that it's needed for __crypto_xor, but that's not the case.
Enabling XOR_BLOCKS is problematic because the XOR_BLOCKS code runs a benchmark when it is initialized. That causes a boot time regression on systems that didn't have it enabled before.
Therefore, remove this unnecessary and problematic selection.

I've separated this fix out from the larger patch https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220725183636.97326-3-ebiggers@kernel.org that is currently queued in cryptodev.
