dm-verity: recheck the hash after a failure

commit 9177f3c0dea6143d05cac1bbd28668fd0e216d11 upstream.

If a userspace process reads (with O_DIRECT) multiple blocks into the same
buffer, dm-verity reports an error [1].

This commit fixes dm-verity, so that if hash verification fails, the data
is read again into a kernel buffer (where userspace can't modify it) and
the hash is rechecked. If the recheck succeeds, the content of the kernel
buffer is copied into the user buffer; if the recheck fails, an error is
reported.
