Actually looking at it more closely, this patch is wrong.

It only makes sense to declare "encrypted_casefold" as a feature of the
filesystem implementation, i.e. /sys/fs/f2fs/features/encrypted_casefold.

It does *not* make sense to declare it as a feature of a particular filesystem
instance, i.e. /sys/fs/f2fs/$disk/features, as it is already implied by the
filesystem instance having both the encryption and casefold features enabled.

Can we add /sys/fs/f2fs/features/encrypted_casefold only?
