I think we need to say more about the rationale for picking fallocate
as the interface to clear errors in a device-dax address range,
especially to justify the change to vfs_fallocate().

---

In commit 25f4c41415e5 ("block: implement (some of) fallocate for
block devices") support for fallocate on block devices to prevent the
need for new ioctls for common semantics that fallocate already
communicates.

In the case of filesystem-dax (xfs or ext4) a punch hole operation is
effective for clearing a media error. It will deallocate blocks and
the zeroing that is performed when the blocks are reallocated will
clear media errors. We want the same semantic for device-dax.
FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE triggers the driver stack to clear any media
errors, although unlike the filesystem case there are no physical
ranges de-allocated from the device. With support for this subset of
fallocate we can avoid needing to add a custom ioctl for similar
functionality.
