I recommend not including the word "crypto" in any user facing part of this.

Compression algorithms are not cryptographic algorithms.  The fact that the
interface to access hardware compression accelerators is currently the "Crypto
API" is an implementation quirk.  It could be a different interface in the
future.

Call it something clear like "hardware decompression".
