 Module parameters::
-max_read_size
-max_write_size
-   Maximum size of read or write requests. When a request larger than this size
-   is received, dm-crypt will split the request. The splitting improves
-   concurrency (the split requests could be encrypted in parallel by multiple
-   cores), but it also causes overhead. The user should tune these parameters to
-   fit the actual workload.
