From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx> Remove the check because DAX now has it's own read/write methods and file systems which support DAX check IS_DAX() prior to IOCB_DIRECT on their own. Therefore, it does not matter if the file state is DAX when the iocb flags are created. Also remove io_is_direct() as it is just a simple flag check. Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx> --- Changes from v6: remove io_is_direct() as well. Remove Reviews since this is quite a bit different. Changes from v3: Reword commit message.
