NFS_V4 works fine without RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 (even without CRYPTO). This dependency was introduced in df486a2 (NFS: Fix the selection of security flavours in Kconfig) to fix a build failure as RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 was thought to be needed for NFS_V4. The fix didn't work completely as NFS_V4 didn't enforce CRYPTO and so the select on RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 didn't work in all situations (e.g. arm/mx1_defconfig). This was rectified by 827e345 (SUNRPC: Fix the NFSv4 and RPCSEC_GSS Kconfig dependencies) but the magic for RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 introduced by df486a2 wasn't reverted.
