I'm having a hard time understanding what's going on in this patch now. Besides
the simplifications I'm suggesting in other comments below, you should consider
splitting this into more than one patch. The block layer changes could be a
separate patch, as could the key eviction support.

blk_ksm_unregister() doesn't seem to be necessary, since it just sets a pointer
to NULL, which the callers could easily do themselves.

blk_ksm_is_superset() is confusing because it actually does "superset or the
same", not just "superset". That *is* the mathematical definition of superset,
but it may not be what people expect when they read this... Is there a better
name, or can the comment properly explain it?

Wouldn't it be easier to replace the original blk_keyslot_manager, rather than
modify it? Then blk_ksm_update_capabilities() wouldn't be needed.

Both table_load() and dm_early_create() call dm_setup_md_queue(). Wouldn't it
be simpler to handle inline encryption in dm_setup_md_queue(), instead of doing
it in both table_load() and dm_early_create()?

ENOMEM, not EINVAL.

Missing kfree(ksm).

Also it looks like other code is using EINVAL for a bad dm table.

How about returning NULL if no crypto modes are actually supported?

This function seems redundant with dm_init_inline_encryption(). Wouldn't it be
simpler to do:

- dm_setup_md_queue() and dm_swap_table() call dm_init_inline_encryption() after
dm_calculate_queue_limits().

- ksm gets passed to dm_table_set_restrictions(), which calls
dm_update_keyslot_manager() (maybe rename to dm_update_inline_encryption()?)
to actually set q->ksm.

That way, the crypto capabilities would be handled similarly to how the
queue_limits are already handled.

dm_init_inline_encryption() seems like a better place for this "are no modes
supported" logic.

Wouldn't it be simpler to just destroy (and free) the existing
blk_keyslot_manager (if any), then set the new one (if it's not NULL)?

Missing kfree().

Seems it would be simpler for these functions to take a request_queue instead of
a mapped_device.

It seems too late to fail here, since the mapped_device already started being
updated. What I suggested above would address this.

Is the blk_ksm_destroy() stub really needed?
