Milan Broz 97e05463e0 bio-integrity: Fix regression if profile verify_fn is NULL
In dm-integrity target we register integrity profile that have
both generate_fn and verify_fn callbacks set to NULL.

This is used if dm-integrity is stacked under a dm-crypt device
for authenticated encryption (integrity payload contains authentication
tag and IV seed).

In this case the verification is done through own crypto API
processing inside dm-crypt; integrity profile is only holder
of these data. (And memory is owned by dm-crypt as well.)

    bio-integrity: stop abusing bi_end_io

we get this crash:

Patch just skip the whole verify workqueue if verify_fn is set to NULL.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
