Subject: [PATCH] fs/ecryptfs: Replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page()

kmap_atomic() is deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page(). Therefore,
replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page() in ecryptfs_write().

kmap_atomic() is implemented like a kmap_local_page() which also disables
page-faults and preemption (the latter only for !PREEMPT_RT kernels).

The code within the mapping/un-mapping in ecryptfs_write() does not
depend on the above-mentioned side effects.

Therefore, a mere replacement of the old API with the new one is all that
is required (i.e., there is no need to explicitly add any calls to
pagefault_disable() and/or preempt_disable()).
