Eric Biggers d2d0727b16 fscrypt: simplify bounce page handling
Currently, bounce page handling for writes to encrypted files is
unnecessarily complicated.  A fscrypt_ctx is allocated along with each
bounce page, page_private(bounce_page) points to this fscrypt_ctx, and
fscrypt_ctx::w::control_page points to the original pagecache page.

However, because writes don't use the fscrypt_ctx for anything else,
there's no reason why page_private(bounce_page) can't just point to the
original pagecache page directly.

Therefore, this patch makes this change.  In the process, it also cleans
up the API exposed to filesystems that allows testing whether a page is
a bounce page, getting the pagecache page from a bounce page, and
freeing a bounce page.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
