Thanks for your patch, I have applied it.  Please keep the following in
mind for future changes, though:

- A patch should make a single change; this one made two (fixing the
  indentation error and splitting the documentation for the two
  parameters).  For anything more significant than this, combining two
  changes in this way could have resulted in the patch being rejected.

- Please read our documentation on the writing of commit messages
  (Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst in particular) and
  line-wrap your changelogs at a reasonable length.

I rewrote the changelog as:

> docs: dm-crypt: Removal of unexpected indentation error
> 
> Add the required indentation to fix this docs build error:
> 
>   Documentation/admin-guide/device-mapper/dm-crypt.rst:167: ERROR: Unexpected indentation.
> 
> Also split the documentation for read and write into separate blocks.

Thanks,
