[PATCH v2] eCryptfs: allow userspace messaging to be disabled

From: Kees Cook
Date: Thu Feb 28 2013 - 03:39:50 EST


When the userspace messaging (for the less common case of userspace key
wrap/unwrap via ecryptfsd) is not needed, allow eCryptfs to build with
it removed. This saves on kernel code size and reduces potential attack
surface by removing the /dev/ecryptfs node.

v2:
- update version mask to reflect messaging feature presence.
