Dear Maintainer,

I noticed that the Adiantum cipher is not enabled in the Debian kernels.

https://security.googleblog.com/2019/02/introducing-adiantum-encryption-for.html
To summarize, Adiantum is a cipher for disk encryption that was designed to b very efficient
on low-end devices lacking without hardware support for AES. A typical use case would
be a low-end android device or a single-board computer like the Raspberry Pi.

I am not necessarily talking about running the Debian kernel on those low-end
devices since they usually come with a custom kernel. The real problem is the
difficulty to mount those encrypted disks coming on my intel-based Debian
servers machines (for boot-strap, backup, recovery or any other maintenance reason).
