Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/8] ext4: use EXT4_INODE_ENCRYPT flag to detect encrypted bio

For supporting encryption in blocksize < pagesize scenario,
bio->bi_private field will be needed to hold the address of the
encryption context structure. Hence this commit uses
ext4_encrypted_inode() to detect the encryption status of a file.
