In order to have a common code base for fscrypt "post read" processing

value affects all the filesystems making use of fscrypt.

this patch causes a recursive dependency when trying to build ia64 images.

For a resolution refer to Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt
subsection "Kconfig recursive dependency limitations"
scripts/kconfig/Makefile:69: recipe for target 'allnoconfig' failed
Reverting the patch fixes the problem.
Thanks for the report. Chandan, it appears the problem is UBIFS_FS selecting
BLOCK. It's actually not necessary because now the parts of fs/crypto/ that
depend on BLOCK are separated out into a separate file fs/crypto/bio.c that is
only compiled with CONFIG_BLOCK. So how about just removing the selection of
BLOCK from fs/ubifs/Kconfig:
select BLOCK if FS_ENCRYPTION
The recursion is gone if I make this change.
