If you are using losetup and mount from loop-AES package, you can specify
mainline util-linux compatible key setup like this:
losetup -e AES256 -H unhashed2 -p 0 /dev/loop0 /dev/sdb1 </etc/backup/aes.key
^^^^^^^^^^^^
Or kerneli.org compatible key setup like this:
losetup -e AES256 -H rmd160 -p 0 /dev/loop0 /dev/sdb1 </etc/backup/aes.key
^^^^^^^^^
