Does it actually need to be part of the Android source tree, or would it suffice
to build it locally?

Either way, building xfs_io for Android might be difficult, so fscryptctl might
be the best option.

Note that fscryptctl doesn't yet support v2 encryption policies, but I'll
probably add it eventually.  I don't have any plans to update e4crypt and
f2fscrypt too.
