ecryptfs: check for existing key_tfm at mount time
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. With list locking changes suggested by akpm.
