The reason is that we have to be super careful not to read pages of a verity file into its own address_space without doing the fs-verity data verification, as then unverified data would be available to userspace. In theory, F2FS's garbage collector could do the data verification. But it's tricky because ->i_verity_info may not have been set up yet. So it might be easiest to continue to treat verity files like encrypted files. - Eric
