Because DES encryption is not implemented, yet.
loop.c_128: struct loop_func_table *xfer_funcs[MAX_LO_CRYPT] = { &none_funcs, &xor_funcs };
loop.c_506: type = info.lo_encrypt_type; if (type >= MAX_LO_CRYPT || xfer_funcs[type] == NULL) return -EINVAL;
Here, xfer_funcs[type] is NULL, so returned 'Invalid argument'.
