Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks for pointing out!

Yes I do agree the second hook call should better depend on 
CONFIG_DM_VERITY_VERIFY_ROOTHASH_SIG=y.

However, the current implementation does not happy with any signature.

In case of CONFIG_DM_VERITY_VERIFY_ROOTHASH_SIG=y, any signature 
provided to dm-verity will be checked against the configured keyring, 
the hook call won't be reached if the check failed. In case of no 
signature is provided and !DM_VERITY_IS_SIG_FORCE_ENABLED(), the hook 
will be called with signature value NULL.

In case of CONFIG_DM_VERITY_VERIFY_ROOTHASH_SIG=n, signature won't be 
accepted by dm-verity. In addition, the whole support of dm-verity will 
be disabled for IPE because CONFIG_DM_VERITY_VERIFY_ROOTHASH_SIG=n.

Yes they can just be in the same header. Thanks for the suggestion.
