Perhaps this should be made optional and controlled by a kconfig option
CONFIG_DM_VERITY_SIGNATURE_VERIFICATION, similar to CONFIG_DM_VERITY_FEC?
CONFIG_SYSTEM_DATA_VERIFICATION brings in a lot of stuff, which might be
unnecessary for some dm-verity users. Also, you've already separated most of
the code out into a separate .c file anyway.
