The device-mapper has a flag to mark targets as singleton, which is a
required flag for immutable targets. Without this flag, multiple
dm-verity targets can be added to a mapped device, which has no
practical use cases. Also from dm_table_get_immutable_target(),
it documented that "Immutable target is implicitly a singleton".
This patch adds the missing flag, restricting only one
dm-verity target per mapped device.
