While geli should definitely be fixed to provide a meaningful error
message instead of a crash, we also need to keep it working out of the
box.
For me, 256K seems to be enough to make it work, but I guess this is a
function of the used crypto algorithms and key sizes. Can you maybe
adapt the check to figure out how much memory actually needs to be
mlocked?
Once we come up with a better upper limit, the default in login.conf
should be bumped accordingly.
