A patch that was added to 4.0-rc1 in the last minute caused a

This changes the Kconfig entry for NVMe to depend on that
support, to avoid the build error. Using 'select' would work
as well, but might have unintended side-effects when users
do not actually want the integerity support.

Thanks for the catch. We do want users to be able to use this with and
without blk-integrity, so I'll send a patch using conditional functions
between appropriate ifdef's like how scsi and block handle this.
