Thanks for the patch, Roberto.

Shouldn't this be handled in the Kconfig? It seems like it would be
better to force the encrypted key type to be built-in if eCryptfs is
configured to be built-in.

With this patch, a user could have CONFIG_ENCRYPTED_KEYS=m and
CONFIG_ECRYPT_FS=y, but still hit potentially confusing error conditions
when trying to use encrypted key support with eCryptfs.
