The commit message should mention that this is needed for the inlinecrypt mount
option to be supported via blk-crypto-fallback, as it is for the other fscrypt
modes.  (Since there's no inline encryption hardware that supports SM4-XTS.)

Anyway, if SM4-XTS support is really being added to fscrypt, then this patch
looks fine.  Jens, are you okay with me taking it through the fscrypt tree?
