Hum, but if we shift right, top bits of PMD_MASK will become zero - not
something we want I guess... You rather want to mask with something like:
~((1UL << (PMD_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT)) - 1)

Nitpick: Ordering of arguments would look more logical to me like:
dax_wake_mapping_entry_waiter(mapping, index, entry, wake_all)
Other than that the patch looks good to me.
