[RFC PATCH 11/25] fscrypt: add FS_IOC_GET_ENCRYPTION_KEY_STATUS ioctl

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers at google.com>

Add a new ioctl, FS_IOC_GET_ENCRYPTION_KEY_STATUS.  Given a key
specified by 'struct fscrypt_key_specifier' (the same way a key is
specified for the ioctls which add and remove keys), it returns status
information in a 'struct fscrypt_get_key_status_args'.

The main motivation for this is that applications need to be able to
check whether an encrypted directory is "unlocked" or not, so that they
can add the key if it is not, and avoid adding the key (which may
involve prompting the user for a passphrase) if it already is.  It's
possible to use some workarounds such as checking whether opening a
regular file fails with ENOKEY, or checking whether the filenames "look
like gibberish" or not.  However, no workaround is usable in all cases.

It's also not a simple matter of locked/unlocked anymore because we also
have a partially locked state, where FS_IOC_REMOVE_ENCRYPTION_KEY has
removed the secret but some encrypted files are still in use.  This
difference can be important for applications.  Moreover, after later
patches some applications will also need a way to determine whether a
key was added by the current user vs. by some other user.

Ideally we'd have been able to use keyctl_search() to check whether a
key is present or not, rather than introducing a new ioctl.  However,
even if the keyrings permission system was fixed to allow granting
read-only access to a keyring (currently the "Search" permission allows
keyctl_invalidate()), it still wouldn't work out because the fscrypt
master keys can be in states other than just present/absent, as
described above.  Moreover, we'd still have to at least add an ioctl
which retrieves the ID of ->s_master_keys.

/proc/keys cannot really be the API either, since reading /proc/keys
involves iterating through all keys on the system and is primarily meant
as a debugging interface.  We also don't necessarily want to grant
everyone VIEW access to all the fscrypt keys as that would imply
everyone being able to list them as well.

Therefore, a new ioctl to get an fscrypt key's status seems like the
best solution.  It is also consistent with the ioctls to add and remove
keys.
