  * Different IV generation algorithms:

- * plain: the initial vector is the 32-bit low-endian version of the sector
+ * plain: the initial vector is the 32-bit little-endian version of the sector
  *        number, padded with zeros if neccessary.
  *
- * ess_iv: "encrypted sector|salt initial vector", the sector number is
- *         encrypted with the bulk cipher using a salt as key. The salt
- *         should be derived from the bulk cipher's key via hashing.
