The help text for CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION and the fscrypt.rst documentation
file both list the filesystems that support fscrypt.  CephFS added
support for fscrypt in v6.6, so add CephFS to the list.

 Unlike dm-crypt, fscrypt operates at the filesystem level rather than
 at the block device level.  This allows it to encrypt different files
 with different keys and to have unencrypted files on the same
 filesystem.  This is useful for multi-user systems where each user's
 data-at-rest needs to be cryptographically isolated from the others.
 However, except for filenames, fscrypt does not encrypt filesystem
 metadata.
 
 Unlike eCryptfs, which is a stacked filesystem, fscrypt is integrated
-directly into supported filesystems --- currently ext4, F2FS, and
-UBIFS.  This allows encrypted files to be read and written without
-caching both the decrypted and encrypted pages in the pagecache,
-thereby nearly halving the memory used and bringing it in line with
-unencrypted files.  Similarly, half as many dentries and inodes are
-needed.  eCryptfs also limits encrypted filenames to 143 bytes,
-causing application compatibility issues; fscrypt allows the full 255
-bytes (NAME_MAX).  Finally, unlike eCryptfs, the fscrypt API can be
-used by unprivileged users, with no need to mount anything.

 fscrypt does not support encrypting files in-place.  Instead, it
 supports marking an empty directory as encrypted.  Then, after
 userspace provides the key, all regular files, directories, and
 symbolic links created in that directory tree are transparently
 encrypted.

 # Filesystems supporting encryption must select this if FS_ENCRYPTION.  This
 # allows the algorithms to be built as modules when all the filesystems are,
 # whereas selecting them from FS_ENCRYPTION would force them to be built-in.
 #
 # Note: this option only pulls in the algorithms that filesystem encryption
 # needs "by default".  If userspace will use "non-default" encryption modes such
 # as Adiantum encryption, then those other modes need to be explicitly enabled
 # in the crypto API; see Documentation/filesystems/fscrypt.rst for details.
