Is there somewhere where it is documented which of:

bdev_dax_supported, generic_fsdax_supported, and dax_supported

one is supposed to use for a given circumstance?

I guess the last two can test a given range w/ blocksize; the first one
only does blocksize; and the middle one also checks with whatever fs
might be mounted? <shrug>

(I ask because it took me a while to figure out how to revert correctly
the brokenness in rc3-5 that broke my nightly dax fstesting.)
