 limit default

 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.
