fscrypt only uses SHA-256 for AES-128-CBC-ESSIV, which isn't the default and is only recommended on platforms that have hardware accelerated AES-CBC but not AES-XTS. There's no link-time dependency, since SHA-256 is requested via the crypto API on first use. To reduce bloat, we should limit FS_ENCRYPTION to selecting the default algorithms only. SHA-256 by itself isn't that much bloat, but it's being discussed to move ESSIV into a crypto API template, which would incidentally bring in other things like "authenc" support, which would all end up being built-in since FS_ENCRYPTION is now a bool. For Adiantum encryption we already just document that users who want to use it have to enable CONFIG_CRYPTO_ADIANTUM themselves. So, let's do the same for AES-128-CBC-ESSIV and CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA256.

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.
