Should the default of verifyChecksum be true? If so and if we only test with
verifyChecksum being true, then yes, the patch can be much simpler.

> Bug in FSInputChecker makes it possible to read from an invalid buffer. The
> buffer in FSInputChecker becomes invalid when readChecksumChunk is used to
> read a chunk to a user buffer directly. Currently, it's not marked as invalid
> in this case and may be read subsequently.
