Really untested. Taking the sector_shift value from userspace cryptsetup
is not yet implemented.

I haven't yet looked at how cryptsetup feeds the setup data to the
kernel. AFAICS the only data the kernel needs to know is the key and the
sector shift value. Is there any quick howto for adding support for new
on-disk formats to cryptsetup? The GELI on-disk format I care about is
just one metadata sector at the end of the device, and sector 0 to n-2
store encrypted data.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Carl-Daniel
