Subject: mm/swap: reject swapon() on filesystem-level encrypted files
Date: Thu, 30 Jul 2026 11:48:53 -0700

ext4 and f2fs don't prevent filesystem-level encrypted files from being
set up directly as swap files.  In this case, encryption is bypassed.

No one should be doing this, vs.  the methods of encrypted swap that
actually do work (such as swapping to a dm-crypt device, or swapping to a
loopback device on top of a filesystem-level encrypted file).

Nevertheless, to prevent user error, make swapon() explicitly reject this
case.  Document this behavior in fscrypt.rst as well.
