Please use a proper commit subject. It should begin with "dm verity: " and use
the imperative tense to describe the change, e.g.
dm verity: don't prefetch hash blocks for already-verified data
Also this should have been "PATCH v2", not simply PATCH, since you already sent
out a previous version.
You also sent out multiple copies of this email for some reason, so I just chose
one arbitrarily to reply to...

This looks fine now, though it's a bit more verbose than necessary, and I don't
think unlikely() will make any difference here. Consider simplifying it to:
if (v->validated_blocks) {
while (n_blocks && test_bit(block, v->validated_blocks)) {
block++;
n_blocks--;
}
while (n_blocks && test_bit(block + n_blocks - 1,
v->validated_blocks))
n_blocks--;
if (!n_blocks)
return;
}
