This series eliminates the call to fscrypt_destroy_keyring() from
__put_super(), which is causing confusion because it looks like (but
actually isn't) a sleep-in-atomic bug.  See the thread "block: sleeping
in atomic warnings", i.e.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/CAHk-=wg6ohuyrmLJYTfEpDbp2Jwnef54gkcpZ3-BYgy4C6UxRQ@mail.gmail.com
and its responses.

To do this, this series makes it so that the key associated with the
"test_dummy_encryption" mount option is added on-demand when files are
accessed, instead of immediately when the filesystem is mounted.

I was going back and forth between this solution and instead having ext4
and f2fs call fscrypt_destroy_keyring() on ->fill_super failure.  (Or
using Linus's suggestion of adding the test dummy key as the very last
step of ->fill_super.)  It does seem ideal to add the key at mount time,
but I ended up going with this solution instead because it reduces the
number of things the individual filesystems have to handle.

Eric Biggers (5):
  fscrypt: add the test dummy encryption key on-demand
  ext4: stop calling fscrypt_add_test_dummy_key()
  f2fs: stop calling fscrypt_add_test_dummy_key()
  fs/super.c: stop calling fscrypt_destroy_keyring() from __put_super()
  fscrypt: clean up fscrypt_add_test_dummy_key()

Well, the diffstat certainly looks nice:

with that

removing the offending line that made Dan's static detection tool so
unhappy, so this all looks lovely to me.

Thanks,
