Subject: [PATCH v5 12/12] libfs: Drop generic_set_encrypted_ci_d_ops

No filesystems depend on it anymore, and it is generally a bad idea.
Since all dentries should have the same set of dentry operations in
case-insensitive filesystems, it should be propagated through ->s_d_op.

- * currently (and thus the casefolding ops would be no-ops for now).

- * Encryption works differently in that the only dentry operation it needs is
- * d_revalidate, which it only needs on dentries that have the no-key name flag.
- * The no-key flag can't be set "later", so we don't have to worry about that.
