Subject: [RFC] fscrypt_key_required mount option

This series is an RFC, it outlines how an filesystem, in this case UBIFS,
could implement a mount option to disable filesystem operations on encrypted
files where no key is present.
The desired byproduct is that in this case ->d_revalidate() is not needed
anymore and VFS folks are in less fear about the dcache implications.

Thanks,
//richard
