Should it maybe be s_verity_wq with a t?

I guess it could be argued that the actual data verification is just part of
fsverity, and there could be other workqueues related to fsverity, e.g. one for
enabling fsverity.  But in practice this is the only one.

Also, the runtime name of the workqueue is "fsverity/$s_id", which is more
consistent with s_verity_wq than s_verify_wq.

The cmpxchg thing makes no sense because this is only called at mount time, when
there is no chance of a race condition.
