This patchset adds a resource-managed variant of blk_ksm_init() so that
drivers don't have to worry about calling blk_ksm_destroy().

This was suggested during review of my patchset which adds eMMC inline
encryption support
(https://lkml.kernel.org/linux-mmc/20210104184542.4616-1-ebiggers@kernel.org/T/#u).
That patchset proposes a second caller of blk_ksm_init().  But it can
instead use the resource-managed variant, as can the UFS driver.

My preference is that patch #1 be taken through the MMC tree together
with my MMC patchset, so that we don't have to wait an extra cycle for
the MMC changes.  Patch #2 can then go in later.

Sure, I can pick patch #1 through my mmc tree, but need an ack from
Jens to do it. Or whatever he prefers.

Or we can take it through the block tree, usually the easiest as
it's the most likely source of potential conflicts. And that's true
for both of them, as long as the SCSI side signs off on patch 2/2.
