How would dm-csum differ from dm-integrity?

By that description it uses a journal to guarantee atomicity. If
multiqueue maybe the performance implications are neutral. But
certainly on spinning drives that would slow things down, especially
if the file system is also journaling, and the workload is metadata
heavy.
