Add support for verifying data from verity files whose Merkle tree block size is less than the page size. The main use case for this is to allow a single Merkle tree block size to be used across all systems, so that only one set of fsverity file digests and signatures is needed. To do this, eliminate various assumptions that the Merkle tree block size and the page size are the same: - Make fsverity_verify_page() a wrapper around a new function fsverity_verify_blocks() which verifies one or more blocks in a page. - When a Merkle tree block is needed, get the corresponding page and only verify and use the needed portion. (The Merkle tree continues to be read and cached in page-sized chunks; that doesn't need to change.) - When the Merkle tree block size and page size differ, use a bitmap fsverity_info::hash_block_verified to keep track of which Merkle tree blocks have been verified, as PageChecked cannot be used directly.

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.
