This is more important than being able to read truecrypted files because I don't think that anyone wants to boot linux from truecrypt when luks is faster, better integrated and provides similar set of features I don't see it on the link you provided. Whirlpool is based on tweaked rijndael which is already a part of your patch. And LRW and xts are used (and recommended) for luks too.
