This should actually be fscrypt_prepare_lookup, not fscrypt_file_open, right?

This has different behavior on unencrypted directories depending on whether
CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION is enabled or not.  That's bad.

In patch 2, the caller you are introducing has already checked IS_ENCRYPTED().

Also, your kerneldoc comment for fscrypt_prepare_atomic_open() says it is for
*encrypted* directories.

So IMO, just remove the IS_ENCRYPTED() check from the CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION
version of fscrypt_prepare_atomic_open().
IMO we should keep this check in fscrypt_prepare_atomic_open() to make it
consistent with the existing fscrypt_prepare_open(). And we can just remove
the check from ceph instead.

Well, then the !CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION version would need to return 0 if
IS_ENCRYPTED() too.

For the !CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION version I think you mean:

 static inline int fscrypt_prepare_atomic_open(struct inode *dir, struct dentry *dentry)

 {
         if (IS_ENCRYPTED(dir))
                 return -EOPNOTSUPP;
         return 0;
 }


Either way would be okay, but please don't do a mix of both approaches within a
single function, as this patch currently does.

Note that there are other fscrypt_* functions, such as fscrypt_get_symlink(),
that require an IS_ENCRYPTED() inode, so that pattern is not new.

Yeah, correct, I didn't notice that.
