State-Changed-Why: 
You should be able to use any variable name prefix for the keyfiles,
you just have to have all three variables:

	<name>_load="YES"
	<name>_type="<provider>:geli_keyfile0"
	<name>_name="/path/to/your/keyfile"

Those three tells the loader to load the given file. GELI uses what's in
_type to find keyfiles. If you have gpt/foo provider you have to be sure
to put it into _type's value, but you can use any prefix you like, eg.

	doesntmatter_load="YES"
	doesntmatter_type="gpt/foo:geli_keyfile0"
	doesntmatter_name="/boot/keys/key"
