dm_verity_fec::corrected seems to have been intended to count the number
of corrected blocks.  However, it actually counted the number of calls
to fec_decode_bufs() that corrected at least one error.  That's not the
same thing.  For example, in low-memory situations correcting a single
block can require many calls to fec_decode_bufs().

Fix it to count corrected blocks instead.
