Thanks for the patch, Kees!

I took a glance over the code and noticed that ECRYPTFS_VERSIONING_MASK
needs some adjusting. Its value is what is used to populate the
/sys/fs/ecryptfs/version mask and ecryptfs-utils uses that to determine
what feature support is available in the kernel.

The ECRYPTFS_VERSIONING_PUBKEY and ECRYPTFS_VERSIONING_DEVMISC bits
should not be set if CONFIG_ECRYPTFS_FS_MESSAGING is not defined.

Also, I don't think it makes sense to expose ECRYPTFS_VERSIONING_MASK to
userspace through linux/ecryptfs.h. For starters, that's the purpose of
the sysfs entry but an #ifdef CONFIG_ECRYPTF_FS_MESSAGING isn't going to
make any sense there. So I suppose we'd want to move
ECRYPTFS_VERSIONING_MASK to fs/ecryptfs/ecryptfs_kernel.h at this time,
too.

Does that sound sane to you?
