fscrypt: new helper function - fscrypt_prepare_lookup()

Introduce a helper function which prepares to look up the given dentry
in the given directory.  If the directory is encrypted, it handles
loading the directory's encryption key, setting the dentry's ->d_op to
fscrypt_d_ops, and setting DCACHE_ENCRYPTED_WITH_KEY if the directory's
encryption key is available.

Note: once all filesystems switch over to this, we'll be able to move
fscrypt_d_ops and fscrypt_set_encrypted_dentry() to fscrypt_private.h.

+ * fscrypt_prepare_lookup - prepare to lookup a name in a possibly-encrypted directory
+ * @dir: directory being searched
+ * @dentry: filename being looked up
+ * @flags: lookup flags
+ *
+ * Prepare for ->lookup() in a directory which may be encrypted.  Lookups can be
+ * done with or without the directory's encryption key; without the key,
+ * filenames are presented in encrypted form.  Therefore, we'll try to set up
+ * the directory's encryption key, but even without it the lookup can continue.
+ *
+ * To allow invalidating stale dentries if the directory's encryption key is
+ * added later, we also install a custom ->d_revalidate() method and use the
+ * DCACHE_ENCRYPTED_WITH_KEY flag to indicate whether a given dentry is a
+ * plaintext name (flag set) or a ciphertext name (flag cleared).
+ *
+ * Return: 0 on success, -errno if a problem occurred while setting up the
+ * encryption key
