Fix was expected to be based on top of the Andi's dm-crypt per-cpu patch but unfortunately I found serious problems there (see this thread http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/10/20/215 ) So there are now several known situations when dm-crypt doesn't perform as expected (another problem just appeared when using CFQ, (because dm(-crypt) lost the issuing process reference) see http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/10/24/59).
