I'm pretty sure with minimal changes it will work with your recent approach too.

I am using dmsetup directly in my project. I am not familiar with cryptsetup
plain. What benefits do you see with this over direct dmsetup?

cryptsetup is the de-facto standard to setup encrypted block devices.
There is a lot of existing tooling around cryptsetup already (systemd, etc..),
so being able to use CAAM keys for dm-crypt with cryptsetup seems natural to me.
Plain mode allows setting up dm-crypt without LUKS.

Thanks,
