26  * This module implements the anti-forensic splitter that is specified
27  * as part of the LUKS format:

29  *   http://clemens.endorphin.org/cryptography
30  *   http://clemens.endorphin.org/TKS1-draft.pdf
31  *
32  * The core idea is to take a short piece of data (key material)
33  * and process it to expand it to a much larger piece of data.
34  * The expansion process is reversible, to obtain the original
35  * short data. The key property of the expansion is that if any
36  * byte in the larger data set is changed / missing, it should be
37  * impossible to recreate the original short data.
