dm-integrity: introduce the Inline mode
This commit introduces a new 'I' mode for dm-integrity. The 'I' mode may be selected if the underlying device has non-power-of-2 sector size. In this mode, dm-integrity will store integrity data directly in device's sectors and it will not use journal. This mode improves performance and reduces flash wear because there would be no journal writes. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@kernel.org>
