There shouldn't be any need to bolt on ksm verification in terms of a
temporary ksm. If you run with my suggestions I just provided in review
of patch 3: dm_table_complete()'s setup of the ksm should also
implicitly validate it.
So this patch, and extra dm_verify_inline_encryption() interface,
shouldn't be needed.
