Hi,

v6 of this patchset applying the comments from Eric and the suggestion from
Christian. Thank you for your feedback.

Eric, since this is getting close to merging, how do you want to handle
it? I will take patch 1 through my tree already, are you fine if I merge
this through unicode or do you want to take it through fscrypt?

As usual, this survived fstests on ext4 and f2fs.

Thank you,

original cover letter:

When case-insensitive and fscrypt were adapted to work together, we moved the
code that sets the dentry operations for case-insensitive dentries(d_hash and
d_compare) to happen from a helper inside ->lookup. This is because fscrypt
wants to set d_revalidate only on some dentries, so it does it only for them in
d_revalidate.

But, case-insensitive hooks are actually set on all dentries in the filesystem,
so the natural place to do it is through s_d_op and let d_alloc handle it [1].
In addition, doing it inside the ->lookup is a problem for case-insensitive
dentries that are not created through ->lookup, like those coming
open-by-fhandle[2], which will not see the required d_ops.

This patchset therefore reverts to using sb->s_d_op to set the dentry operations
for case-insensitive filesystems. In order to set case-insensitive hooks early
and not require every dentry to have d_revalidate in case-insensitive
filesystems, it introduces a patch suggested by Al Viro to disable d_revalidate
on some dentries on the fly.

It survives fstests encrypt and quick groups without regressions. Based on
v6.7-rc1.
