[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#714806: debian/README.keyctl: outdated documentation (single threaded kernel support)

Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.6.1-1
Severity: minor
The documentation in /usr/share/doc/cryptsetup/README.keyctl consists a large
paragraph about how to work around the "single threaded" implementation of
dm-crypt in Linux. However, that's not correct anymore as of 2.6.38, see [1],
patch [2]. So the information given in that file is wrong for Wheezy and
newer.
README.keyctl is equal in Wheezy, Jessy and Sid.
Cheers,
Julius
