There's already a merge conflict with f2fs/dev, in the second patch :-(

It's going to be hard get this series merged, due to cross-tree dependencies.

I'll try to take the first patch (which handles decryption only, and is smaller)
through the fscrypt tree for 6.1.  Then maybe the second patch can go through
the f2fs tree later.
