mainlining shenanigans

Add support for fsverity in btrfs. To support the generic interface in fs/verity, we add two new item types in the fs tree for inodes with verity enabled. One stores the per-file verity descriptor and btrfs verity item and the other stores the Merkle tree data itself. Verity checking is done in end_page_read just before a page is marked uptodate. This naturally handles a variety of edge cases like holes, preallocated extents, and inline extents. Some care needs to be taken to not try to verity pages past the end of the file, which are accessed by the generic buffered file reading code under some circumstances like reading to the end of the last page and trying to read again. Direct IO on a verity file falls back to buffered reads. Verity relies on PageChecked for the Merkle tree data itself to avoid re-walking up shared paths in the tree. For this reason, we need to cache the Merkle tree data. Since the file is immutable after verity is turned on, we can cache it at an index past EOF. Use the new inode ro_flags to store verity on the inode item, so that we can enable verity on a file, then rollback to an older kernel and still mount the file system and read the file. Since we can't safely write the file anymore without ruining the invariants of the Merkle tree, we mark a ro_compat flag on the file system when a file has verity enabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
