Subject: [PATCH] ecryptfs: modify write path to encrypt page in writepage

Change the write path to encrypt the data only when the page is written to
disk in ecryptfs_writepage. Previously, ecryptfs encrypts the page in
ecryptfs_write_end which means that if there are multiple write requests to
the same page, ecryptfs ends up re-encrypting that page over and over again.
This patch minimizes the number of encryptions needed.
