From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers at google.com>
When a filesystem encryption key is removed, we need all files which had
been "unlocked" (had ->i_crypt_info set up) with it to appear "locked"
again. This is most easily done by evicting the inodes. This can
currently be done using 'echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches'; however,
that is overkill and not usable by non-root users. In preparation for
allowing fs/crypto/ to evict just the needed inodes, export
inode_lru_list_del() to modules.
