Eric, Are you suggesting that the entire block of code that has invocations to
fscrypt_prep_ciphertext_page() and fscrypt_encrypt_block() be moved to a
separate function that gets defined in fscrypt module?

If yes, In Ext4, We have the invocation of io_submit_add_bh() being
interleaved with calls to fscrypt_encrypt_block().
