How about keeping in sync with erofs-utils?

no use? and 
how about keeping in sync with erofs-utils, naming feature_compat as well? see,

erofs_validate_sb_chksum(struct super_block *sb, void *sbdata)

Can we pass void *sbdata --- first page(block) instead?

IMO, I think we could just
 1) malloc EROFS_BLKSIZ;
 2) copy sbdata -> buf;
 3) dsb->checksum = 0;
 4) crc32c the first copied block;
 5) kfree.

or some better approach without allocating memory.

how about erroring out with proper return value?

ditto.

we can call crc32c for multiple times, and no need to
get and calc 0-th block again...

and no memcpy at all.

should use kmap() then, because kmalloc() and get_meta_page() can sleep and
last for long time.

It should be with a proper return value and corresponding messages,
see the related discussion:
