RE: [PATCH] dm verity: correcting logic used with corrupted_errs counter

["Ravi Kumar Siddojigari" <rsiddoji@codeaurora.org>]

One more question  :
	Current code has DM_VERITY_MAX_CORRUPTED_ERRS  set to 100  can we
reduce this ? or is there any  data that made us to keep this 100 ?
Regards,
Ravi

Subject: [PATCH] dm verity: correcting logic used with corrupted_errs
counter

In verity_handle_err we see that the "corrupted_errs"  is never going to be
more than one as the code will fall through "out" label and hit
panic/kernel_restart on the first error  which is not as expected.. 
Following patch will make sure that corrupted_errs are incremented and only
panic/kernel_restart once it reached DM_VERITY_MAX_CORRUPTED_ERRS.
