NFSD needs EXPORTFS

NFSD needs EXPORTFS

[Matthew Wilcox]

Got this report about 2.6.11-rc3.  Is this the correct solution?

A short analyse, it seems that's because NFSD was builtin while EXPORTFS
was a module in my previous config file. Imho EXPORTFS would be build as

If the problem occured with CONFIG_XFS_FS=m I understand what went 
wrong.

It seems to be correct.

This was a side effect of Roman's fix for the XFS <-> EXPORTFS 
dependency.
