FWIW, linux-next contains fixups for a bunch of such stuff,
including f2fs one.  The only difference between your resolution and
Stephen's fixup is
static const char *f2fs_encrypted_follow_link(struct dentry *dentry,
					      void **cookie)
vs.
static const char *f2fs_encrypted_follow_link(struct dentry *dentry, void **cookie)

Said that, f2fs_symlink() looks odd - we create a directory entry *before*
doing page_symlink().  And if it (or encryption) fails, I don't see anything
that would remove that new directory entry.  What are we ending up with
in such case?
