I would really much prefer to move fscrypt to use a hash lookup instead
of bloating all inodes for a each file system supporting it, even if
very few files on very few file systems are using it.  With the fsverity
xfs series posted again this is becoming personal :)

You mentioned you were looking into it but didn't like the rhashtable
API.  My offer to help with that still stands.
