8e9f666a6e blk-crypto: update inline encryption documentation
Rework most of inline-encryption.rst to be easier to follow, to correct
some information, to add some important details and remove some
unimportant details, and to take into account the renaming from
blk_keyslot_manager to blk_crypto_profile.

abb861fac0 fscrypt: improve documentation for inline encryption
Currently the fscrypt inline encryption support is documented in the
"Implementation details" section, and it doesn't go into much detail.
It's really more than just an "implementation detail" though, as there
is a user-facing mount option.  Also, hardware-wrapped key support (an
upcoming feature) will depend on inline encryption and will affect the
on-disk format; by definition that's not just an implementation detail.

Therefore, move this documentation into its own section and expand it.

5851d3b042 block/keyslot-manager: introduce devm_blk_ksm_init()
Add a resource-managed variant of blk_ksm_init() so that drivers don't
have to worry about calling blk_ksm_destroy().

Note that the implementation uses a custom devres action to call
blk_ksm_destroy() rather than switching the two allocations to be
directly devres-managed, e.g. with devm_kmalloc().  This is because we
need to keep zeroing the memory containing the keyslots when it is
freed, and also because we want to continue using kvmalloc() (and there
is no devm_kvmalloc()).

9303c9d5e9 docs: get rid of :c:type explicit declarations for structs
The :c:type:`foo` only works properly with structs before
Sphinx 3.x.

On Sphinx 3.x, structs should now be declared using the
.. c:struct, and referenced via :c:struct tag.

As we now have the automarkup.py macro, that automatically
convert:
	struct foo

into cross-references, let's get rid of that, solving
several warnings when building docs with Sphinx 3.x.

54b259f68d Documentation: Document the blk-crypto framework
The blk-crypto framework adds support for inline encryption. There are
numerous changes throughout the storage stack. This patch documents the
main design choices in the block layer, the API presented to users of
the block layer (like fscrypt or layered devices) and the API presented
to drivers for adding support for inline encryption.
