This one could use a Fixes tag perhaps:
Fixes: d77e38e612a0 ("xfrm: Add an IPsec hardware offloading API")

as in theory the build was broken since then, as it added:
+#ifdef CONFIG_XFRM_OFFLOAD
+struct xfrmdev_ops {
...
+#ifdef CONFIG_XFRM
+       const struct xfrmdev_ops *xfrmdev_ops;

So the pointer would have an undefined type
  if CONFIG_XFRM && !CONFIG_XFRM_OFFLOAD
Though I couldn't reproduce this, not sure why.

But.. is it buildable with this patch? I mine failed:

obj-$(CONFIG_XFRM) := xfrm_policy.o xfrm_state.o xfrm_hash.o \
                      xfrm_input.o xfrm_output.o \
                      xfrm_sysctl.o xfrm_replay.o xfrm_device.o

so xfrm_device is always in if CONFIG_XFRM is there,
xfrm_dev_init(), via xfrm_dev_notifier -> xfrm_dev_event() ->
  xfrm_dev_register() and then:

static int xfrm_dev_register(struct net_device *dev)
{
        if ((dev->features & NETIF_F_HW_ESP) && !dev->xfrmdev_ops)
                                                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

We can't control CONFIG_XFRM_OFFLOAD directly, so unless you
unselected other offloadings such as INET_ESP_OFFLOAD, it is still on.

linux/net/xfrm/xfrm_device.c: In function ‘xfrm_dev_register’:
linux/net/xfrm/xfrm_device.c:147:48: error: ‘struct net_device’ has no member named ‘xfrmdev_ops’; did you mean ‘netdev_ops’?
  if ((dev->features & NETIF_F_HW_ESP) && !dev->xfrmdev_ops)
                                                ^~~~~~~~~~~
                                                netdev_ops
