Yes, for now it does nothing. But I will post a patch for bleeding-mask
that will do initial processing of mask during format initialization, at
least that is the plan. This will help us in future to write a self test
for mask mode. Also I think initial processing of mask should be done
during format initialization, not before cracking.
