Bug Description

Running Ubuntu 14.4.0.4

I have the root disk encrypted with aes-xts-plain64

After upgrading to linux-image-3.16.0-67-generic I was not able to boot getting message cryptsetup: cryptsetup failed, bad password or options?

Trying to decrypt manually the disk shows the xts-plain64 method missing.

After reverting to linux-image-3.16.0-62-generic the password was recognized and the boot completed successfully

Thanks

Jorge
