This adds support for encryption with casefolding.
Since the name on disk is case preserving, and also encrypted, we can no
longer just recompute the hash on the fly. Additionally, to avoid
leaking extra information from the hash of the unencrypted name, we use
siphash via an fscrypt v2 policy.
The hash is stored at the end of the directory entry for all entries
inside of an encrypted and casefolded directory apart from those that
deal with '.' and '..'. This way, the change is backwards compatible
with existing ext4 filesystems.
[ Changed to advertise this feature via the file:
/sys/fs/ext4/features/encrypted_casefold -- TYT ]

This commit aims to fix the following issues in ext4 documentation:
- Flexible block group docs said that the aim was to group block
metadata together instead of block group metadata.
- The documentation consistly uses "location" instead of "block number".
It is easy to confuse location to be an absolute offset on disk. Added
a line to clarify all location values are in terms of block numbers.
- Dirent2 docs said that the rec_len field is shortened instead of the
name_len field.
- Typo in bg_checksum description.
- Inode size is 160 bytes now, and hence i_extra_isize is now 32.
- Cluster size formula was incorrect, it did not include the +10 to
s_log_cluster_size value.
- Typo: there were two s_wtime_hi in the superblock struct.
- Superblock struct was outdated, added the new fields which were part
of s_reserved earlier.
- Multiple mount protection seems to be implemented in fs/ext4/mmp.c.

Move the ext4 data structures book to Documentation/filesystems/ext4/
since the administrative information moved elsewhere.
