This patch adds a compatible implementation of the block chaining mode used by the Loop-AES block device encryption system (http://loop-aes.sourceforge.net/) designed by Jari Ruusu. It operates on full 512 byte sectors and uses CBC with an IV derived from the sector number, the data and optionally extra IV seed. This means that after CBC decryption the first block of sector must be tweaked according to decrypted data. Loop-AES can use three encryption schemes: version 1: is plain aes-cbc mode (already compatible) version 2: uses 64 multikey scheme with own IV generator version 3: the same as version 2 with additional IV seed (it uses 65 keys, last key is used as IV seed) The IV generator is here named lmk (Loop-AES multikey) and for the cipher specification looks like: aes:64-cbc-lmk Version 2 and 3 is recognised according to length of provided multi-key string (which is just hexa encoded "raw key" used in original Loop-AES ioctl). Configuration of the device and decoding key string will be done in userspace (cryptsetup). (Loop-AES stores keys in gpg encrypted file, raw keys are output of simple hashing of lines in this file).
