[PATCH] Add an option to dm-verity to validate hashes at most once

[Patrik Torstensson]

Add an option to dm-verity to validate hashes at most once
to allow platforms that is CPU/memory contraint to be
protected by dm-verity against offline attacks.

The option introduces a bitset that is used to check if
a block has been validated before or not. A block can
be validated more than once as there is no thread protection
for the bitset.

This patch has been developed and tested on entry-level
Android Go devices.
