[dm-devel] [PATCH v2] dm-crypt: add ability to use keys from the kernel key retention service

(Please still consider it to be RFC only, I need to modify the uspace teststuite
again due to changes in key_string format. Also the changes to dm-crypt documentation
will follow before final submit. Feature wide I'd consider the patch being complete
unless any bugs would emerge)

The kernel key service is a generic way to store keys for the use of
other subsystems. Currently there is no way to use kernel keys in dm-crypt.
This patch aims to fix that. Instead of key userspace may pass a key
description with preceding ':'. So message that constructs encryption
mapping now looks like this:

  <cipher> [<key>|:<key_string>] <iv_offset> <dev_path> <start> [<#opt_params> <opt_params>]

where <key_string> is in format: <key_size>:<key_type>:<key_description>

Currently we only support two elementary key types: 'user' and 'logon'.
Keys may be loaded in dm-crypt either via <key_string> or using
classical method and pass the key in hex representation directly.

dm-crypt device initialised with a key passed in hex representation may be
replaced with key passed in key_string format and vice versa.

(Patch is based on original work by Andrey Ryabinin)
