We are a bit more forgiving than the code was before: In case AES-128-CBC is
selected, we accept a longer key and use the first 128 bits of the derived key.
(see fscrypt_get_encryption_info())

The alternative is to make this check as strict as it was and just check for
master_key->size != min_keysize.

IMO the current check is okay. I will however add a comment that documents this.
We could also add a pr_warn_once(), but I don't think this is really necessary.
