Don't do this. gnupg is 5 MB big, if we keep increasing the size of the
root file system what is the point of supporting a standalone /usr/?
Using cryptsetup+gnupg for /usr is a niche configuration of an already
niche configuration, it is not reasonable to move a large package to the
root just for this.

I agree that a new fstab flag would be a much better solution.
Not all feature requests are worth being implemented.
