From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx>
DAX requires special address space operations (aops). Changing DAX
state therefore requires changing those aops.
However, many functions require aops to remain consistent through a deep
call stack.
Define a vfs level inode rwsem to protect aops throughout call stacks
which require them.
Finally, define calls to be used in subsequent patches when aops usage
needs to be quiesced by the file system.

Changes from V3:
Convert from global to a per-inode rwsem
Remove pre-optimization
Remove static branch stuff
Change function names from inode_dax_state_* to inode_aops_*
I kept 'inode' as the synchronization is at the inode
level now (probably where it belongs)...
and I still prefer *_[down|up]_[read|write] as those
names better reflect the use and interaction between
users (readers) and writers better. 'XX_start_aop()'
would have to be matched with something like
'XX_wait_for_aop_user()' and 'XX_release_aop_users()' or
something which does not make sense on the 'writer'
side.
Changes from V2
Rebase on linux-next-08-02-2020
Fix locking order
Change all references from mode to state where appropriate
add CONFIG_FS_DAX requirement for state change
Use a static branch to enable locking only when a dax capable
device has been seen.
Move the lock to a global vfs lock
this does a few things
1) preps us better for ext4 support
2) removes funky callbacks from inode ops
3) remove complexity from XFS and probably from
ext4 later
We can do this because
1) the locking order is required to be at the
highest level anyway, so why complicate xfs
2) We had to move the sem to the super_block
because it is too heavy for the inode.
3) After internal discussions with Dan we
decided that this would be easier, just as
performant, and with slightly less overhead
than in the VFS SB.
We also change the functions names to up/down;
read/write as appropriate. Previous names were over
simplified.

+Changing DAX 'state' dynamically
+----------------------------------
+
+Some file systems which support DAX want to be able to change the DAX state
+dyanically. To switch the state safely we lock the inode state in all "normal"
+file system operations and restrict state changes to those operations. The
+specific rules are.
+
+ 1) the direct_IO address_space_operation must be supported in all
+ potential a_ops vectors for any state suported by the inode.
+
+ 3) DAX state changes shall not be allowed while the file is mmap'ed
+ 4) For non-mmaped operations the VFS layer must take the read lock for any
+ use of IS_DAX()
+ 5) Filesystems take the write lock when changing DAX states.
