Bug Description

Hi,

I have an encrypted volume using LUKS on a iscsi device. When my notebook was returning from standby mode, I couldn't access it anymore. I restarted open-iscsi, but there was still a device which I removed with dmsetup. I still couldn't mount the volume (the passphrase is usually in my login keying) so I restarted my notebook. I couldn't login afterwards, so I checked the keyring and the passphrase was gone.

The keyring must not under any circumstances forget one of my passphrases. Otherwise I have to keep all passphrases in a separate file which shouldn't be necessary. I luckily did.
