Updated FileVault 2 status check Extension Attribute now available

I've updated my FileVault 2 status check EA, to better handle Macs with multiple encrypted volumes. I'd noticed that I was occasionally seeing some Macs reported by the EA as being FileVault 2 encrypted, but on investigation, the encrypted drive was actually a non-boot volume (like an encrypted Time Machine backup.) I've addressed the issue by having the EA check specifically for the boot drive's FileVault 2 status.

The updated EA is available from the following address:

Hey @rtrouton - I've been using this great script for a while, but we're now not getting a correct boot partition FV2 status reported for partitions in MacOS 10.13. Any chance you know how this could be updated for High Sierra?
Thanks!
