Subject: [PATCH 02/14] fscrypt: remove error messages for skcipher_request_alloc() failure

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@...gle.com>

skcipher_request_alloc() can only fail due to lack of memory, and in
that case the memory allocator will have already printed a detailed
error message.  Thus, remove the redundant error messages from fscrypt.
