Eric Biggers c6c89783eb fscrypt: add functions for direct I/O support
Encrypted files traditionally haven't supported DIO, due to the need to
encrypt/decrypt the data.  However, when the encryption is implemented
using inline encryption (blk-crypto) instead of the traditional
filesystem-layer encryption, it is straightforward to support DIO.

In preparation for supporting this, add the following functions:

- fscrypt_dio_supported() checks whether a DIO request is supported as
  far as encryption is concerned.  Encrypted files will only support DIO
  when inline encryption is used and the I/O request is properly
  aligned; this function checks these preconditions.

- fscrypt_limit_io_blocks() limits the length of a bio to avoid crossing
  a place in the file that a bio with an encryption context cannot
  cross due to a DUN discontiguity.  This function is needed by
  filesystems that use the iomap DIO implementation (which operates
  directly on logical ranges, so it won't use fscrypt_mergeable_bio())
  and that support FSCRYPT_POLICY_FLAG_IV_INO_LBLK_32.
