If there is (or will be) some generic interface for hw-disk FDE, maybe it can be added some day into libcryptsetup. dm-crypt (resp. device-mapper) backend is currently fixed in code, but if there is an alternative, I'll add code to support different backend. (devel code just did the same for various userspace crypto backends) But adding code just for one proprietary device is not the option.
