For encrypting and decrypting file contents on block-based filesystems (i.e., ext4 and f2fs, but not ceph and ubifs), always use blk-crypto instead of fs-layer crypto (direct use of crypto_skcipher). Since the blk-crypto API provides a fallback to CPU-based encryption, it's all that's needed on block-based filesystems. The support for two alternative block-based file contents encryption implementations, fs-layer and blk-crypto, existed mainly for historical reasons, as the fs-layer path came first. Some of it is also still needed for the non-block-based filesystems, but a lot of it isn't. Removing the duplicate fs-layer code paths greatly simplifies the code, most of which is done in later commits. Specific implementation details: - SB_INLINECRYPT now controls whether blk_crypto_config::allow_hw is set to true, instead of whether blk-crypto is used at all. The effect is that the semantics are preserved: the inlinecrypt mount option selects the use of inline encryption hardware instead of the CPU. - Set up a blk_crypto_key iff the file is a regular file on a block-based filesystem. To determine whether the filesystem is block-based, add a bit fscrypt_operations::is_block_based. - Remove fscrypt_select_encryption_impl(). Move the logging logic that was previously there into fscrypt_prepare_inline_crypt_key(). Note that blk_crypto_config_supported() is no longer needed.
