dm verity fec: limit error correction recursion commit f1a880a93baaadb14c10a348fd199f1cdb6bcccd upstream. If the hash tree itself is sufficiently corrupt in addition to data blocks, it's possible for error correction to end up in a deep recursive loop, which eventually causes a kernel panic. This change limits the recursion to a reasonable level during a single I/O operation.
