dm-verity publishes its root hash and signature state to LSMs in
verity_preresume(). LSMs such as IPE store this information in the block
device's security blob and use it to authorize access to files.
The original LSM integration relied on DM_TARGET_IMMUTABLE to prevent
verity from being replaced by a different target type. However, DM allows
tables containing a DM_TARGET_WILDCARD target to replace immutable
targets. The block device can then retain the old integrity state even
though its data is no longer verified by dm-verity.
Clear the published root hash and signature state in verity_postsuspend()
so that the block device does not retain stale dm-verity attributes after
the verity target is replaced.
Fixes: a6af7bc3d72f ("dm-verity: expose root hash digest and signature data to LSMs")
