Why are you including dm-core.h here?

Both of your calls to security_bdev_setsecurity() to set your blobs in
the bdev are suspect because you're doing so from the verity_ctr().
The mapped_device has 2 dm_table slots (active and inactive).  The
verity_ctr() becomes part of the inactive slot, there is an extra step
to bind the inactive table to the active table.

This leads to you changing the blobs in the global bdev _before_ the
table is actually active.  It is possible that the inactive table will
simply be removed and the DM verity device put back in service;
leaving your blob(s) in the bdev inconsistent.

This issue has parallels to how we need to defer changing the global
queue_limits associated with a request_queue until _after_ all table
loading is settled and then the update is done just before resuming
the DM device (mapped_device) -- see dm_table_set_restrictions().

Unfortunately, this feels like it may require a new hook in the
target_type struct (e.g. ->finalize())
