There is a guideline in Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt that
states "In general use select only for non-visible symbols (no prompts
anywhere) and for symbols with no dependencies." Both CONFIG_NFS_V4 and
CONFIG_NFSD_V4 select RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5, which is visible, and has
dependencies.
For the sake of addressing the kconfig-language recommendation,
"select RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5" to "select SUNRPC_GSS".
The server side requires it to build properly, and the client side has it
to provide support for loading GSS capabilities, which RFC 3530 makes
mandatory for NFS version 4.
