So my working version is temporarily here http://mbroz.fedorapeople.org/dm-crypt/ It basically patch from Andi Kleen with some minor fixes, split into 4 parts for easy review. (You have to apply _always_ all 4 patches.) Version for 2.6.34/35 is split into one file (actually I am using this version on my stable machine now). Probably this is what you want. Please note one thing - it creates threads per CPU, but work submitted by one cpu should never be processed by other thread. So it helps if you have parallel application but will not help too much if all work is committed from one process. More discussion - see dm-devel archive.
