Is this option selected in Mobian's kernel build? If not, could I request that it be activated?

No, Mobian stock kernel does not have this set. You can easily find out for yourself:

Code:
mobian@pinephone:~$ zgrep SUN8I_CE /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_SUN8I_CE=m
CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_SUN8I_CE_DEBUG=y
# CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_SUN8I_CE_HASH is not set
# CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_SUN8I_CE_PRNG is not set
# CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_SUN8I_CE_TRNG is not set
