The page decrypt calls in ecryptfs_write() are both pointless and buggy.
Pointless because ecryptfs_get_locked_page() has already brought the page
up to date, and buggy because prior mmap writes will just be blown away by
the decrypt call.
This patch also removes the declaration of a now-nonexistent function
ecryptfs_write_zeros().
Thanks to Eric Sandeen and David Kleikamp for helping to track this
down.

fsx w/ mmap dies quickly ( < 100 ops) without this, and survives
nicely (to millions of ops+) with it in place.

- make the following needlessly global code static:

- crypto.c:key_tfm_list
- crypto.c:key_tfm_list_mutex
- inode.c:ecryptfs_getxattr()
- main.c:ecryptfs_init_persistent_file()

ecryptfs in 2.6.24-rc3 wasn't surviving fsx for me at all, dying after 4
ops. Generally, encountering problems with stale data and improperly
zeroed pages. An extending truncate + write for example would expose stale
data.
With the changes below I got to a million ops and beyond with all mmap ops
disabled - mmap still needs work. (A version of this patch on a RHEL5
kernel ran for over 110 million fsx ops)
I added a few comments as well, to the best of my understanding
as I read through the code.

The functions that eventually call down to ecryptfs_read_lower(),
ecryptfs_decrypt_page(), and ecryptfs_copy_up_encrypted_with_header()
should have the responsibility of managing the page Uptodate
status. This patch gets rid of some of the ugliness that resulted from
trying to push some of the page flag setting too far down the stack.

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.
