fscrypto: don't use on-stack buffer for filename encryption
With the new (in 4.9) option to use a virtually-mapped stack (CONFIG_VMAP_STACK), stack buffers cannot be used as input/output for the scatterlist crypto API because they may not be directly mappable to struct page. For short filenames, fname_encrypt() was encrypting a stack buffer holding the padded filename. Fix it by encrypting the filename in-place in the output buffer, thereby making the temporary buffer unnecessary. This bug could most easily be observed in a CONFIG_DEBUG_SG kernel because this allowed the BUG in sg_set_buf() to be triggered.
