Hi,

I reopened (again) this bug report. Please read the following before getting
angry...

Actually, cryptsetup(8) makes it quite clear that hash processing is only
used on *passphrases*. See the "NOTES ON PASSPHRASE PROCESSING FOR
PLAIN MODE" section. So, IMHO that's not a bug in cryptsetup, but
rather the intended and documented way it works.

So, this means that, when a key file is provided, any provided hash algorithm
should definitely be ignored (in plain mode).

Thanks in advance to take that into account.

Cheers,
Quentin
