[BLOCK] dm-crypt: trivial comment improvements
Just some minor comment nits. - little-endian is better than low-endian - and since it is called essiv everywere it should also be essiv in the comments (and not ess_iv) Signed-off-by: Rik Snel <rsnel@cube.dyndns.org> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
