Thanks for the fix! I reproduced this on a 4.15 and, while I didn't try
anything older than that, I think it affects the first kernel release
with eCryptfs. I've added the following Fixes tag:

 Fixes: 237fead61998 ("[PATCH] ecryptfs: fs/Makefile and fs/Kconfig")

I've pushed it to the next branch of tyhicks/ecryptfs.git.
