Hi Darrick, Ira

I wonder if we just need to check two dax options(i.e. old 'dax' option
and new 'dax=always' option)
because of the following reasons:
1) we cannot detect if underlying device supports dax by mounting
dax=inode or dax=never.
2) dax=always, dax=inode, dax=never are always introduced together on
all distros.
