nfsd: depend on CRYPTO_MD5 for legacy client tracking
The legacy client tracking infrastructure of nfsd makes use of MD5 to derive a client's recovery directory name. As the nfsd module doesn't declare any dependency on CRYPTO_MD5, though, it may fail to allocate the hash if the kernel was compiled without it. As a result, generation of client recovery directories will fail with the following error: NFSD: unable to generate recoverydir name The explicit dependency on CRYPTO_MD5 was removed as redundant back in 6aaa67b5f3b9 (NFSD: Remove redundant "select" clauses in fs/Kconfig 2008-02-11) as it was already implicitly selected via RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5. This broke when RPCSEC_GSS_KRB5 was made optional for NFSv4 in commit df486a25900f (NFS: Fix the selection of security flavours in Kconfig) at a later point. Fix the issue by adding back an explicit dependency on CRYPTO_MD5.
