eCryptfs: Privileged kthread for lower file opens

eCryptfs would really like to have read-write access to all files in the
lower filesystem. Right now, the persistent lower file may be opened
read-only if the attempt to open it read-write fails. One way to keep
from having to do that is to have a privileged kthread that can open the
lower persistent file on behalf of the user opening the eCryptfs file;
this patch implements this functionality.

This patch will properly allow a less-privileged user to open the eCryptfs
file, followed by a more-privileged user opening the eCryptfs file, with
the first user only being able to read and the second user being able to
both read and write. eCryptfs currently does this wrong; it will wind up
calling vfs_write() on a file that was opened read-only. This is fixed in
this patch.

eCryptfs: integrate eCryptfs device handle into the module.

Update the versioning information. Make the message types generic. Add an
outgoing message queue to the daemon struct. Make the functions to parse
and write the packet lengths available to the rest of the module. Add
functions to create and destroy the daemon structs. Clean up some of the
comments and make the code a little more consistent with itself.

eCryptfs: read_write.c routines

Add a set of functions through which all I/O to lower files is consolidated.
This patch adds a new inode_info reference to a persistent lower file for each
eCryptfs inode; another patch later in this series will set that up. This
persistent lower file is what the read_write.c functions use to call
vfs_read() and vfs_write() on the lower filesystem, so even when reads and
writes come in through aops->readpage and aops->writepage, we can satisfy them
without resorting to direct access to the lower inode's address space.
Several function declarations are going to be changing with this patchset.
For now, in order to keep from breaking the build, I am putting dummy
parameters in for those functions.

[PATCH] ecryptfs: fs/Makefile and fs/Kconfig

eCryptfs is a stacked cryptographic filesystem for Linux. It is derived from
Erez Zadok's Cryptfs, implemented through the FiST framework for generating
stacked filesystems. eCryptfs extends Cryptfs to provide advanced key
management and policy features. eCryptfs stores cryptographic metadata in the
header of each file written, so that encrypted files can be copied between
hosts; the file will be decryptable with the proper key, and there is no need
to keep track of any additional information aside from what is already in the
encrypted file itself.
