This is the only one where I'm not happy about the location.
This hides the ordering requirement between fsverity and fscrypt. It's
easier to miss now. This also really saves very little compared to the
other changes. So I wonder whether it's really that big of a deal to
have the call located in the open routines of the filesystems.
