fsverity: simplify error handling in verify_data_block()

Clean up the error handling in verify_data_block() to (a) eliminate the
'err' variable which has caused some confusion because the function
actually returns a bool, (b) reduce the compiled code size slightly, and
(c) execute one fewer branch in the success case.
