f2fs: add inline encryption support
Wire up f2fs to support inline encryption via the helper functions which fs/crypto/ now provides. This includes: - Adding a mount option 'inlinecrypt' which enables inline encryption on encrypted files where it can be used. - Setting the bio_crypt_ctx on bios that will be submitted to an inline-encrypted file. - Not adding logically discontiguous data to bios that will be submitted to an inline-encrypted file. - Not doing filesystem-layer crypto on inline-encrypted files. This patch includes a fix for a race during IPU by Sahitya Tummala <stummala@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Satya Tangirala <satyat@google.com> Acked-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Reviewed-by: Chao Yu <yuchao0@huawei.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200702015607.1215430-4-satyat@google.com Co-developed-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>
