NFS mounts failing when keytab present on client

NFS mounts stopped working on one of my computers after a kernel update from 4.15.3 to 4.15.4. I traced the problem to the commit
[46e8d06e423c4f35eac7a8b677b713b3ec9b0684] crypto: hash - prevent using keyed hashes without setting key
and a later kernel with this patch reverted works normally.

The problem seems to be related to kerberos as the mount fails when the keytab is present, but works if I rename the keytab file. This is true even though the mount is with sec=sys . The mount should also work with sec=krb5 but that also fails in the same way. When the mount fails there are errors in dmesg like
[ 1232.522816] gss_marshal: gss_get_mic FAILED (851968)
[ 1232.522819] RPC: couldn't encode RPC header, exit EIO
