Eric Biggers <ebiggers@kernel.org> says:
This is a cleaned-up implementation of moving the i_crypt_info and
i_verity_info pointers out of 'struct inode' and into the fs-specific
part of the inode, as proposed previously by Christian at
https://lore.kernel.org/r/

c8e11488a0e6@kernel.org/
The high-level concept is still the same: fs/crypto/ and fs/verity/
locate the pointer by adding an offset to the address of struct inode.
The offset is retrieved from fscrypt_operations or fsverity_operations.
I've cleaned up a lot of the details, including:
- Grouped changes into patches differently
- Rewrote commit messages and comments to be clearer
- Adjusted code formatting to be consistent with existing code
- Removed unneeded #ifdefs
- Improved choice and location of VFS_WARN_ON_ONCE() statements
- Added missing kerneldoc for ubifs_inode::i_crypt_info
- Moved field initialization to init_once functions when they exist
- Improved ceph offset calculation and removed unneeded static_asserts
- fsverity_get_info() now checks IS_VERITY() instead of v_ops
- fscrypt_put_encryption_info() no longer checks IS_ENCRYPTED(), since I
no longer think it's actually correct there.
- verity_data_blocks() now keeps doing a raw dereference
- Dropped fscrypt_set_inode_info()
- Renamed some functions
- Do offset calculation using int, so we don't rely on unsigned overflow
- And more.
