mount.ecryptfs_private fails with: "mount: Invalid argument" when wrong 
passphrase inserted into the keyring
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494412
You received this bug notification because you are a member of eCryptfs,
which is subscribed to ecryptfs-utils in ubuntu.

Status in “ecryptfs-utils” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

Another stupid use case: if you insert a key in the keyring using the signature 
from ~/.ecryptfs/Private.sig as description, and something wrong as the 
passprase, you don't get a meaningful message saying that the passphrase is not 
the right one. Instead, you get an error from mount.

I know I shouldn't be doing that, but getting clear error messages always helps 
debugging.

$ keyctl clear @u
$ keyctl add user [signature] stuff @u
896838280
$ mount.ecryptfs_private 
mount: Invalid argument


dmesg shows weird errors, maybe meaning something else is going wrong?
