well, wait a minute. After rereading the bug description, I come to the
following conclusion:

- you have an encrypted root and want to use a keyfile instead of a password. 
- In your /etc/crypttab you put the keyfile in /etc/luks_passwd. 
- the initramfs has no possibility to decrypt the key in /etc/luks_passwd 
because it would need to have that key in advance
- the message is warning exactly because of this issue.

If you want to get the keyfile from a removable device, please about the
passdev script from the cryptsetup package in intrepid in
/usr/share/doc/cryptsetup/README.initramfs.gz

** Changed in: cryptsetup (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
