From: Huaisheng Ye <yehs1@xxxxxxxxxx> If use DAX way to mount the origin device of dm_snapshot, when merging back snapshot to origin, system call table_load during the construction of snapshot-merge will try to detect new dm_table's type equals to the existed md's type or not. The existed type equals to DM_TYPE_DAX_BIO_BASED, but the new created type belongs to DM_TYPE_BIO_BASED. So, we need to expand valid_type in function is_valid_type.
