From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx> There is a conflict with the user visible statx bits 'mount root' and 'dax'. The kernel is changing the dax bit to correct this conflict.[1] Adjust _check_s_dax() to use the new bit. Because DAX tests do not run on root mounts, STATX_ATTR_MOUNT_ROOT should always be 0, therefore we can allow either bit to indicate DAX and cover any kernel which may be running.
