[RFC PATCH v4 00/17] ceph+fscrypt: context, filename and symlink support

It's been a while (September!) since my last posting of this series.
Main notable changes since then:

- adapt to latest version of fscrypt API in mainline
- take advantage of alternate_name feature in MDS to handle long names
- gate ioctls on MDS support
- many bugfixes

The set starts by exporting new_inode_pseudo and a few fscrypt
functions. Hopefully those aren't too controversial, but please let me
know if they are. From there, it adds support for crypto contexts in an
xattr, and then filenames and symlinks.

The alternate name is just an extra field that gets stored in the dentry
on the MDS on creation and transmitted to clients as part of the dentry
lease. For fscrypt, we're using it to store the full binary crypttext
name when it's too long to store without hashing the last characters in
the name. This allows us to handle long filenames properly, while still
making the underlying filesystem accessible to clients that don't
support fscrypt.

Note that we use our own encoding scheme for "nokey names" that is
similar to the usual fscrypt one but lacks the dirhash fields (which we
don't use). We don't want to enshrine the fscrypt_nokey_name format onto
stable storage, and this scheme allows us to avoid that, and preserve
compatibility with legacy clients that don't support fscrypt.

For now, this is still a RFC. This all works pretty well so far, but
I don't want to merge any of it until we can handle encrypting the file
contents as well. I'll (hopefully!) be working toward that end in the
near future.
