Yes but this breaks "Sorin"'s conspiracy to sneak into readhat the block layout driver. Because it would be selected automatically if you set CONFIG_NFS41.
Because for some perverted reason readhat wants pNFS-Files in, with latest patches, but not the blocks or objects. I liked it that Blocks tried to state: "pNFS is with blocks as well". Even Trond agreed that it is logical this way.
You select CONFIG_NFS41 or not. objects and blocks are a part of that, mandated by the protocol.
(I don't know that it was "Sorin"'s Idea, I meant the block guys)
I wish we can go back to the auto selection but fix the dependency stuff. Surly it is possible.
Thanks Boaz
