ZEN: dm-crypt: Disable workqueues for crypto ops
Queueing in dm-crypt for crypto operations reduces performance on modern systems. As discussed in an article from Cloudflare, they discovered that queuing was introduced because the crypto subsystem used to be synchronous. Since it's now asynchronous, we get double queueing when using the subsystem through dm-crypt. This is obviously undesirable and reduces throughput and increases latency.
