+integrity_key_size:<bytes>
+    Optionally set the integrity key size if it differs from the digest size.
+    It allows the use of wrapped key algorithms where the key size is

 sector_size:<bytes>
     Use <bytes> as the encryption unit instead of 512 bytes sectors.
     This option can be in range 512 - 4096 bytes and must be power of two.
