fscrypt_has_permitted_context has do the checking as this patch,

168 /* no restrictions if the parent directory is not encrypted */
169 if (!parent->i_sb->s_cop->is_encrypted(parent))
170 return 1;
171 /* if the child directory is not encrypted, this is always a problem */
172 if (!parent->i_sb->s_cop->is_encrypted(child))
173 return 0;

So, the cross rename unencrypted file into encrypted directory is permitted right now.

I have a encrypted directory "ncry", "new" is unencrypted file.

[root@nfstestnic f2fs]# renameat2 -x encry/hello new
Operation not permitted
[root@nfstestnic f2fs]# renameat2 -x encry/hello new
Operation not permitted

How do you test it?
