Subject: [PATCH v2 12/14] ext4: decrypt only the needed blocks in ext4_block_write_begin()

From: Chandan Rajendra <chandan@...ux.ibm.com>

In ext4_block_write_begin(), only decrypt the blocks that actually need
to be decrypted (up to two blocks which intersect the boundaries of the
region that will be written to), rather than assuming blocksize ==
PAGE_SIZE and decrypting the whole page.

This is in preparation for allowing encryption on ext4 filesystems with
blocksize != PAGE_SIZE.

(EB: rebase onto previous changes, improve the commit message,
 and move the check for encrypted inode)
