Currently, the Gooroom platform uses AES-XTS for disk encryption. The main reason for submitting this patch is to make disk encryption with LEA (e.g. LEA-XTS) available on there.

We don't add kernel algorithms without an in-kernel user.  Is
there an existing in-kernel user that can use this as is or are
you going to add one?
