Additional info:

* cryptsetup 1.6.4-1

Steps to reproduce:
Have an encrypted volume which uses serpent-xts-essiv:tgr192 and attempt to decrypt it.

Should we backport this or wait for 1.6.6? Since I already backported 3 patches, we would essentially be running a git snapshot.

depending on how long distant is 1.6.6, maybe backport patches like this, seems good.

I have similar problem even with 1.6.6. The problem started with 1.6.5 version.
