Sorry, one more thing I didn't notice before. Since this is a new feature,
please only allow it in fscrypt_valid_enc_modes_v2(), not in
fscrypt_valid_enc_modes_v1(). That's what we did for AES-256-XTS +
AES-256-HCTR2 recently. There should be no need to add new features to
v1 encryption policies, which have been deprecated for several years.

Thanks for reminder, it makes sense to only support the new algorithm in
v2 policy, which I will do this.

BR,
