fs: remove inode::i_crypt_info
Now that all fscrypt-capable filesystems store the pointer to
fscrypt_inode_info in the filesystem-specific part of the inode
structure, inode::i_crypt_info is no longer needed. Update
fscrypt_inode_info_addr() to no longer support the fallback to
inode::i_crypt_info. Finally, remove inode::i_crypt_info itself along
with the now-unnecessary forward declaration of fscrypt_inode_info.
The end result of the migration to the filesystem-specific pointer is
memory savings on CONFIG_FS_ENCRYPTION=y kernels for all filesystems
that don't support fscrypt. Specifically, their in-memory inodes are
now smaller by the size of a pointer: either 4 or 8 bytes.
