Subject: dm-crypt: plain64 IV support for -stable?

Would it be possible to add commit 61afef614b013ee1b767cdd10325acae1db1f4d2
"dm crypt: add plain64 iv" to -stable?

Without it, users of LTS kernels like 2.6.32 are missing important
functionality (as in: might not be able to mount some LUKS volumes
created on newer kernels).
