dissect: Don't bypass blkid *_lookup_value() to decide USAGE
After commit "core: reuse existing dm-verity device for single
filesystem images pinned by policy" (0bd766553c), when I attach a
portable image (erofs+verity) and try to start a service, it fails with:
Partition root discovered with policy 'unprotected' but 'verity+read-only-on+growfs-off+erofs' was required, refusing.
Failed to dissect image: Operation not possible due to RF-kill
The image does have verity, in fact the RootImagePolicy= field was added
automatically.
The inconsistency between what is found at attach vs when starting the
service comes from the fact that dissect_image() is called with a
different policy as parameter and the recent shortcut added.
At attach we do this:
dissect_image(policy="*")
partition_policy_determine_fstype(policy)
partition_policy_flags_to_string(...) // mask is 0, returns 0
-> returns NULL // root_fstype_string is not set
if (root_fstype_string) // false
sym_blkid_probe_lookup_value()...
At start, as we do have the policy set, we do:
dissect_image(policy="root=verity+...+erofs:root-verity=...")
partition_policy_determine_fstype(policy)
partition_policy_flags_to_string(...) // returns 1
-> sets root_fstype_string to "erofs"
if (root_fstype_string) // true
usage = "filesystem"
Then, the service is blocked to start with the aforementioned error.
It's correct for partition_policy_determine_fstype() to set erofs in
that case, and other callers seem to expect this behavior on similar
cases, but what is not correct is to assume that this means it's a
filesystem. Usage in this case should still be unset.
Let's just always do the lookup, as that gets us the correct answer reliably
and we already did the slow part that is the probe.
The call to `sym_blkid_do_safeprobe()` is a few lines above. The call to
the lookup function isn't very expensive. blkid_probe_lookup_value()[1]
calls __blkid_probe_lookup_value(), which searches on a list[2], IIUC in
memory and no IO is used. It's a linear search of the property.
