Title:
  15.10beta crashes encrypted swap partition

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I'm usually using a setup with three partitions on a disk

  Partition 1:  plain ext4 boot partition mounted on  /boot
  Partition 2:  luks-encrypted swap
  Partition 3: luks-encrypted btrfs for /  /home ...

  both mentioned in /etc/crypttab like

  sda2_crypt UUID=a7976d5c-6191-436d-9cf9-2cedf17d0893 none luks,swap,discard
  sda3_crypt UUID=339b9a90-8292-422d-a3cf-eeb0317e9f84 none luks,discard

  
  With several machines I have installed 15.10 beta on and in several cases I experienced the problem that the swap is not activated at boot time and that /dev/disks/by-uuid does not contain a link to the swap partition, and the previously created luks-encrypted swap is destroyed after boot: It is not a luks partition anymore and filled with random (presumably encrypted) bytes without structure. 

  I first thought that this is a problem of the setup process, and
  repaired the swap manually. But then I found the partition destroyed
  again. This happend several times on several machines.

  I am not sure yet what exactly would destroy the partition.
