I'll be reviewing your patchset now. Comments inlined below.

Why are you extending dm-mod-objs? Why not dm-verity-objs?

Would prefer you set a DM_MSG_PREFIX and use DMWARN() instead.

You never explicitly initialize trusted_root_digests to NULL.

Also, I'll have to look at the caller(s), but without locking this
branching is racey.

Again, where is the locking to protect trusted_root_digests?
