The test is opening a verity file for read+write access, which should fail.  But
it's incorrectly succeeding, hence the test is right to not pass.  Did you add
the missing call to ext4_set_inode_flags() in ext4_set_verity() as I suggested?

(But I'll make the suggested change to the test too, so it fails cleanly in this
case rather than hangs reading from stdin.)
