I don't really like exploding config option dependencies into
subsystems that aren't actually related to the config options.
It's confusing enough laready that we've got XFS code dependent on
PNFSD config options without adding more to it. Instead, I'd
suggest this should be resolved in the kconfig files. i.e. make
CONFIG_NFSD_SCSILAYOUT=y select CONFIG_NFSD_BLOCKLAYOUT to resolve
the config dependency at config time.

Cheers,

Dave.
