Mikulas Patocka 5c02406428 dm integrity: conditionally disable "recalculate" feature
Otherwise a malicious user could (ab)use the "recalculate" feature
that makes dm-integrity calculate the checksums in the background
while the device is already usable. When the system restarts before all
checksums have been calculated, the calculation continues where it was
interrupted even if the recalculate feature is not requested the next
time the dm device is set up.

Disable recalculating if we use internal_hash or journal_hash with a
key (e.g. HMAC) and we don't have the "legacy_recalculate" flag.

This may break activation of a volume, created by an older kernel,
that is not yet fully recalculated -- if this happens, the user should
add the "legacy_recalculate" flag to constructor parameters.
