ANDROID: ext4, f2fs: enable direct I/O with inline encryption
ext4 and f2fs have traditionally not supported direct I/O on encrypted
files, since it's difficult to implement with the traditional
filesystem-layer encryption. But when inline encryption is used
instead, it's straightforward to support direct I/O, as long as the I/O
is fully filesystem-block-aligned. Add support for it by:
- Making the two generic direct I/O implementations in the kernel,
__blockdev_direct_IO() and iomap_dio_rw(), set the encryption context
on bios for inline-encrypted files. __blockdev_direct_IO() is used by
f2fs, and was used by ext4 in kernel v5.4 and earlier. iomap_dio_rw()
is used by ext4 in kernel v5.5 and later.
- Making ext4 and f2fs allow direct I/O to encrypted files (rather the
current behavior of falling back to buffered I/O) when the file is
using inline encryption and the I/O is fully filesystem-block-aligned.
