Jeff Moyer pointed out that a mount; umount loop of ecryptfs,
with the same cipher & other mount options, created a new
ecryptfs_key_tfm_cache item each time, and the cache could
grow quite large this way.
Looking at this with mhalcrow, we saw that ecryptfs_parse_options()
unconditionally called ecryptfs_add_new_key_tfm(), which is what
was adding these items.
Refactor ecryptfs_get_tfm_and_mutex_for_cipher_name() to create a
new helper function, ecryptfs_tfm_exists(), which checks for the
cipher on the cached key_tfm_list, and sets a pointer
to it if it exists. This can then be called from
ecryptfs_parse_options(), and new key_tfm's can be added only when
a cached one is not found.
