Subject: [PATCH 4.4 15/20] ext4: require encryption feature for EXT4_IOC_SET_ENCRYPTION_POLICY

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Richard Weinberger <richard@....at>

commit 9a200d075e5d05be1fcad4547a0f8aee4e2f9a04 upstream.

...otherwise an user can enable encryption for certain files even
when the filesystem is unable to support it.
Such a case would be a filesystem created by mkfs.ext4's default
settings, 1KiB block size. Ext4 supports encyption only when block size
is equal to PAGE_SIZE.
But this constraint is only checked when the encryption feature flag
is set.
