	[ Upstream commit 0c1f3193b1cdd21e7182f97dc9bca7d284d18a15 ] The third parameter of module_param() is permissions for the sysfs node but it looks like it is being used as the initial value of the parameter here. In fact, false here equates to omitting the file from sysfs and does not affect the value of require_signatures. Making the parameter writable is not simple because going from false->true is fine but it should not be possible to remove the requirement to verify a signature. But it can be useful to inspect the value of this parameter from userspace, so change the permissions to make a read-only file in sysfs.

	The verification is to support cases where the root hash is not secured by Trusted Boot, UEFI Secureboot or similar technologies. One of the use cases for this is for dm-verity volumes mounted after boot, the root hash provided during the creation of the dm-verity volume has to be secure and thus in-kernel validation implemented here will be used before we trust the root hash and allow the block device to be created. The signature being provided for verification must verify the root hash and must be trusted by the builtin keyring for verification to succeed. The hash is added as a key of type "user" and the description is passed to the kernel so it can look it up and use it for verification. Adds CONFIG_DM_VERITY_VERIFY_ROOTHASH_SIG which can be turned on if root hash verification is needed. Kernel commandline dm_verity module parameter 'require_signatures' will indicate whether to force root hash signature verification (for all dm verity volumes).
