I used his "crypto" module, which manages the available ciphers and hashes. I did however make some changes to that, and I also replaced Simon's AES and RIPEMD implementations with ones from libgcrypt. I gather that there was a problem with the license of those implementations, and so I think that it may be easier for me to submit Simon's patch along with mine. My "luks" module also has a lot of code in common with Simon's "devmapper" module (which handles non-LUKS encrypted partitions), and so I'm planning to incorporate that functionality in my "luks" module.
