Not set is n, and as it isn't visible or intended to be set by a user, I
left out the help text.  I'll add both for completeness.

OK. I agree - that is better.

Doing this in a single patch would combine two changes in a single commit:
 - the definition of the extra operations for a config of only SCSI_LAYOUT
 - the addition of CONFIG_EXPORTFS_BLOCK_OPS.

Since the first is the originally intended behavior, and the second fixes it
up, I'll just send it along in a single patch if that's preferred.
