You could use the new __radix_tree_replace() here and save a second
tree lookup.

Ditto for __radix_tree_replace().

The way these functions are split out looks fine to me.

Now that clear_exceptional_entry() doesn't handle shmem and DAX
anymore, only shadows, could you rename it to clear_shadow_entry()?

The naming situation with truncate, invalidate, invalidate2 worries me
a bit. They aren't great names to begin with, but now DAX uses yet
another terminology for what state prevents a page from being dropped.
Can we switch to truncate, invalidate, and invalidate_sync throughout
truncate.c and then have DAX follow that naming too? Or maybe you can
think of better names. But neither invalidate2 and invalidate_clean
don't seem to capture it quite right ;)

Thanks
