I thought it would be confusing for fsverity_verify_folio() to not actually
verify a whole folio.  So, for now we have:

    fsverity_verify_page: verify a whole page
    fsverity_verify_folio: verify a whole folio
    fsverity_verify_blocks: verify a range of blocks in a folio

IMO that makes sense.  Note: fsverity_verify_folio() is currently unused, but
ext4 might use it.

So, just use fsverity_verify_blocks().
