Kernels above 4.9 break encrypted disks
I'm on the Buster repo. For all kernels released after 4.9, I can't
boot into my system, which has all encrypted partitions except for
/boot. I think tihs is my problem, as I get the same symptoms:

I decided to wait until the 4.12 kernel came out, which it just did,
hoping that this 'regression' - as they call it - would be fixed.
However, I'm getting the same "check that kernel supports
aes-xts-plain64 cipher" error and the inability to boot.
Is this a bug that needs to be reported to Debian or a change in
policy requiring me to set up new encrypted partitions? If the latter,
is there a way to do it without having to wipe and reload Debian? I'm
guessing not, but I thought I'd ask.
With thanks,
