[REGRESSION PATCH v2] NFS: let NFS_V4 and NFSD_V4 enforce CRYPTO

From: Uwe Kleine-KÃnig

Hello,

here comes a v2 of the patch that improves the commit log with a more
detailed analysis of the breakage introduced by df486a2
(= v2.6.36-rc2~34^2~1 BTW) and additionally undoes the "default y" for
RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5.

So compared to the state before df486a2 the changes are:

NFS_V4 selects CRYPTO
NFSD_V4 selects CRYPTO
RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 doesn't depend on EXPERIMENTAL anymore
RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 now depends on CRYPTO instead of selecting it

Best regards
Uwe

This is a follow up to

df486a2 (NFS: Fix the selection of security flavours in Kconfig)

Before df486a2 NFS_V4 selected RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 but didn't enforce the
latter's dependency EXPERIMENTAL. df486a2 removed RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5's
dependency on EXPERIMENTAL but additionally let it depend on CRYPTO
(instead of select CRYPTO before). So it was still possible to have a
config that has NFS_V4 but not RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5. Moreover df486a2
changed the dependency of NFS_V4 and NFSD_V4 on RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 from

config NFS_V4
...
select RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5

to

config RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5
...
prompt "..." if !(NFS_V4 || NFSD_V4)
default y

This works but is ugly as it hides the dependencies of NFSD?_V4 in a
different Kconfig file. So this is undone here, too.

The following ARM defconfigs were affected by this problem:
mx1 pxa3xx qil-a9260 usb-a9260 usb-a9263

These builds ended in:

LD init/built-in.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux1
fs/built-in.o: In function `nfs_callback_authenticate':
compr_zlib.c:(.text+0x7c040): undefined reference to `svc_gss_principal'
make[2]: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1
make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
