Personally, I rarely use the debianized kernel source... to impatient to wait for new releases to be packaged! :-) For whatever it's worth, I'm having good results with the crypto patches and upstream source. The one thing to watch out for is loopback filesystems (whether encrypted or not)... the current 2.4.x releases have substantial problems in this respect. If you plan to make use of them be sure to also apply Jens Axboe's loopback patch, available at <http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/axboe/patches/>.
