[RFC PATCH V2 11/11] ext4: Enable encryption for blocksize less than page size

[Chandan Rajendra <chandan@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Now that we have all the code to support encryption for block size less
than page size scenario, this commit removes the conditional check in
filesystem mount code.

The commit also changes the support statement in
Documentation/filesystems/fscrypt.rst to reflect the fact that
encryption of filesystems with blocksize less than page size now works.
