Apparently ubifs does encrypt data shorter than the filesystem block size, so
this part is wrong.

I suggest we split this into two functions, fscrypt_encrypt_block_inplace() and
fscrypt_encrypt_blocks(), so that it's conceptually simpler what each function
does.  Currently this works completely differently depending on whether the
filesystem set FS_CFLG_OWN_PAGES in its fscrypt_operations, which is weird.

I also noticed that using fscrypt_ctx for writes seems to be unnecessary.
AFAICS, page_private(bounce_page) could point directly to the pagecache page.
That would simplify things a lot, especially since then fscrypt_ctx could be
removed entirely after you convert reads to use read_callbacks_ctx.

IMO, these would be worthwhile cleanups for fscrypt by themselves, without
waiting for the read_callbacks stuff to be finalized.  Finalizing the
read_callbacks stuff will probably require reaching a consensus about how they
should work with future filesystem features like fsverity and compression.

So to move things forward, I'm considering sending out a series with the above
cleanups for fscrypt, plus the equivalent of your patches:

	"fscrypt_encrypt_page: Loop across all blocks mapped by a page range"
	"fscrypt_zeroout_range: Encrypt all zeroed out blocks of a page"
	"Add decryption support for sub-pagesized blocks" (fs/crypto/ part only)

Then hopefully we can get all that applied for 5.3 so that fs/crypto/ itself is
ready for blocksize != PAGE_SIZE; and get your changes to ext4_bio_write_page(),
__ext4_block_zero_page_range(), and ext4_block_write_begin() applied too, so
that ext4 is partially ready for encryption with blocksize != PAGE_SIZE.

Then only the read_callbacks stuff will remain, to get encryption support into
fs/mpage.c and fs/buffer.c.  Do you think that's a good plan?

Thanks!
