I wonder how to judge that ... it's an eMMC supposedly complying to
some JEDEC standard, so it *should* be ok.

At least I haven't observed anything like that up to now.

But on another aspect: how about the interaction between dm-integrity
and ext4? Sure, they each have their own journal, and they're
independent layers. Is there anything that could go wrong, say a block
that can't be recovered in the dm-integrity layer, causing ext4 to run
into trouble, e.g., an I/O error that prevents ext4 from mounting?

I assume tne answer is "No", but can I be sure?

Thx
regards
Kai
