Eric, are you okay with the fs-verity patches in v18?  If so, it would
be nice to get your ACK on this patch at the very least.

While it looks like there may be a need for an additional respin to
address some new/different feedback from the device-mapper folks, that
shouldn't affect the fs-verity portions of the patchset.
