[PATCH 21.02 only] kernel: expose (unhide) CONFIG_ASN1 as ksmbd requirement

[Rafał Miłecki]

From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal at milecki.pl>

OpenWrt provides kmod-asn1-decoder for CONFIG_ASN1 but selecting it
doesn't really work as expected. Kernel symbol is hidden and can be
actually selected only as a dependency. That works well for in-kernel
stuff but fails for external modules requiring ASN1 like ksmbd.

Modify kernel Kconfig to make CONFIG_ASN1 always selectable. It's
required to satisfy ksmbd dependencies cleanly (without hack like
selecting unrelated modules).

+Subject: [PATCH] init/Kconfig: make ASN1 explicitly selectable (unhide it)
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Kernel developers assumed ASN1 symbol may be needed only by in-kernel
+code and they made it hidden. It is actually used by ksmbd version being
+developed in GitHub (there is also upstream one since Linux 5.15).
+
+To allow building ksmbd from GitHub cleanly allow selecting its
+dependency (CONFIG_ASN1) explicitly by unhiding it.
