Eric Biggers 65f62515e9 ext4: remove ext4_dir_open()
Since encrypted directories can be opened and searched without their key
being available, and each readdir and ->lookup() tries to set up the
key, trying to set up the key in ->open() too isn't really useful.

Just remove it so that directories don't need an ->open() method
anymore, and so that we eliminate a use of fscrypt_get_encryption_info()
(which I'd like to stop exporting to filesystems).

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
