HAVE_S3 is a bit odd, how about using
S3_ENABLED (like LZ4_ENABLED?)

What's s3 credentials file? Is it documented
somewhere? Why is it named as passwd_file?

Can we have an option to pass in accesskey
too?

This follows the format of s3fs-fuse. Storing the ak/sk in a file is for 
security purposes. The file permission is set to 600 to prevent non-root users 
from accessing the ak/sk.

Understood, I wonder if the format is documented in
the AWS website or somewhere?

AFAIK, the user should download the file which records ak/sk at the first time 
when access the target console page. The ak/sk may be saved in the csv format 
file. And the AWS website only shows the way to help user to obtain the ak/sk, 
such as [1]?

I found this:
https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse/blob/master/doc/man/s3fs.1.in#L25

Ok, anyway, let's considering document the s3 mode later
in mkfs.erofs.
