[PATCH v3 14/17] fscrypt: Remove fs-layer zeroout code

Eric Biggers <[email protected]> Sun, 12 Jul 2026 22:37:05 -0400
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-fscrypt,net.sourceforge.lists.linux-f2fs-devel,org.kernel.vger.linux-block,org.kernel.vger.linux-ext4,org.kernel.vger.linux-fsdevel
Message-ID <[email protected]>
Now that fscrypt's file contents en/decryption is always implemented
using blk-crypto when the filesystem is block-based, the fs-layer
zeroout code in fs/crypto/bio.c is unused code.  Remove it, then fold
fscrypt_zeroout_range_inline_crypt() into fscrypt_zeroout_range().

Then make fscrypt_alloc_bounce_page() and fscrypt_crypt_data_unit()
static, since they're no longer called from any other file.
