Note: it think it's going to be useful to make the keyring id
available someplace like /sys/fs/<fs>/<blkdev>/keyring, or preferably
in the new fsinfo system call. Yes, the system administrator can paw
through /proc/keys and try to figure it out, but it will be nicer if
there's a direct way to do that.
For that matter, we could just add a new ioctl which returns the file
system's keyring id. That way an application program won't have to
try to figure out what a file's underlying sb->s_id happens to be.
(Especially if things like overlayfs are involved.)

Can you move the definition of FSCRYPT_KEY_SPEC_TYPE_DESCRIPTOR
outside of the structure definition, and then add a comment about what
is a "descriptor" key spec? (And then in a later patch, please add a
comment about what is an "identifier" key type.) There's an
explanation in Documentation/filesystems/fscrypt.rst, I know, but a
one or two line comment plus a pointer to
Documentation/filesystems/fscrypt.rst in the header file would be
really helpful.
Otherwise, it looks good. Feel free to add:
