Yes, I did make the suggested changes. But the test would some times hang
indefinitely because of xfs_io waiting on input from stdin.

With the new changes made to ext4_set_verity(), I see that the fsck fails
consistency check. But the failure is seen even without my patches applied. I
have planned to debug the failure after I post the next version of the
patchset.
