When CONFIG_BLOCK is not enabled (x86_64):

warning: (NFS_V4_1) selects MD which has unmet direct dependencies (BLOCK)
MD depends on BLOCK but when MD is selected, it will not select BLOCK.
Selecting BLOCK at NFS_V4_1 can solve this but it's like resolving
dependency from top down.

Is MD designed to not be selected from the first place? If not, can we
change it to selecting BLOCK?
Hopefully MD will not select BLOCK.

The blocklayout parts of NVS_V4_1 could depend on BLOCK.  or all of NVS_V4_1
can depend on BLOCK.
