PATCH 1/1 ext4 crypto: fix to check feature status before get policy

From: Chao Yu <[email protected]>

When getting fscrypto policy via EXT4_IOC_GET_ENCRYPTION_POLICY, if encryption feature is off, it's better to return EOPNOTSUPP instead of ENODATA, so let's add ext4_has_feature_encrypt() to do the check for that.

Hi,

Is this change not necessary? A month has passed...

Thanks,

Sorry, I was preoccupied with all the other fscrypt changes, and was thinking of waiting until 5.5 for this to avoid a potential extra merge conflict or a potentially breaking change. Looking at this again though, the new ioctl FS_IOC_GET_ENCRYPTION_POLICY_EX *does* do the feature check, which doesn't match the documentation, which implies the check isn't done. Also, f2fs does the check in FS_IOC_GET_ENCRYPTION_POLICY, so the filesystems are inconsistent.

So, it makes some sense to apply this now. So I've gone ahead and applied the following to fscrypt.git#master, edited a bit from your original patch:
