From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers at google.com>
Since encrypted directories can be opened without their encryption key
being available, and each readdir tries to set up the key, trying to set
up the key in ->open() too isn't really useful.
Just remove it so that directories don't need an ->open() method
anymore, and so that we eliminate a use of fscrypt_get_encryption_info()
(which I'd like to stop exporting to filesystems).
