Filesystem encryption ostensibly supported revoking a keyring key that
had been used to "unlock" encrypted files, causing those files to become
"locked" again. This was, however, buggy for several reasons, the most
severe of which was that when key revocation happened to be detected for
an inode, its fscrypt_info was immediately freed, even while other
threads could be using it for encryption or decryption concurrently.
This could be exploited to crash the kernel or worse.
This patch fixes the use-after-free by removing the code which detects
the keyring key having been revoked, invalidated, or expired. Instead,
an encrypted inode that is "unlocked" now simply remains unlocked until
it is evicted from memory. Note that this is no worse than the case for
block device-level encryption, e.g. dm-crypt, and it still remains
possible for a privileged user to evict unused pages, inodes, and
dentries by running 'sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches', or by
simply unmounting the filesystem. In fact, one of those actions was
already needed anyway for key revocation to work even somewhat sanely.
This change is not expected to break any applications.
In the future I'd like to implement a real API for fscrypt key
revocation that interacts sanely with ongoing filesystem operations ---
waiting for existing operations to complete and blocking new operations,
and invalidating and sanitizing key material and plaintext from the VFS
caches. But this is a hard problem, and for now this bug must be fixed.
This bug affected almost all versions of ext4, f2fs, and ubifs
encryption, and it was potentially reachable in any kernel configured
with encryption support (CONFIG_EXT4_ENCRYPTION=y,
CONFIG_EXT4_FS_ENCRYPTION=y, CONFIG_F2FS_FS_ENCRYPTION=y, or
CONFIG_UBIFS_FS_ENCRYPTION=y). Note that older kernels did not use the
shared fs/crypto/ code, but due to the potential security implications
of this bug, it may still be worthwhile to backport this fix to them.

Keep validate_user_key() due to kasprintf() panic.
fscrypt:
- skcipher_ -> ablkcipher_
- fs/crypto/bio.c changes
f2fs:
- fscrypt: use ENOKEY when file cannot be created w/o key
- fscrypt: split supp and notsupp declarations into their own headers
- fscrypt: make fscrypt_operations.key_prefix a string

This patch allows fscrypto to handle a second key prefix given by filesystem.
The main reason is to provide backward compatibility, since previously f2fs
used "f2fs:" as a crypto prefix instead of "fscrypt:".
Later, ext4 should also provide key_prefix() to give "ext4:".
One concern decribed by Ted would be kinda double check overhead of prefixes.
In x86, for example, validate_user_key consumes 8 ms after boot-up, which turns
out derive_key_aes() consumed most of the time to load specific crypto module.
After such the cold miss, it shows almost zero latencies, which treats as a
negligible overhead.
Note that request_key() detects wrong prefix in prior to derive_key_aes() even.

As Al pointed, d_revalidate should return RCU lookup before using d_inode.

This patch fixes the issue introduced by the ext4 crypto fix in a same manner.
For F2FS, however, we flush the pending IOs and wait for a while to acquire free
memory.

Commit 0b81d07790726 ("fs crypto: move per-file encryption from f2fs
tree to fs/crypto") moved the f2fs crypto files to fs/crypto/ and
renamed the symbol prefixes from "f2fs_" to "fscrypt_" (and from "F2FS_"
to just "FS" for preprocessor symbols).
Because of the symbol renaming, it's a bit hard to see it as a file
move: use
git show -M30 0b81d07790726
to lower the rename detection to just 30% similarity and make git show
the files as renamed (the header file won't be shown as a rename even
then - since all it contains is symbol definitions, it looks almost
completely different).
Even with the renames showing as renames, the diffs are not all that
easy to read, since so much is just the renames. But Eric Biggers
noticed that it's not just all renames: the initialization of the
xts_tweak had been broken too, using the inode number rather than the
page offset.
That's not right - it makes the xfs_tweak the same for all pages of each
inode. It _might_ make sense to make the xfs_tweak contain both the
offset _and_ the inode number, but not just the inode number.
