I think this needs to say "vfs/XFS_MMAPLOCK", because it's not
obvious from reading the code that these are the same thing...

This is kinda messy. If you lift the filemap_fault() path out of
this, then there rest of the code remains largely unchanged:

	if (!IS_DAX(inode) && !write_fault)
		return filemap_fault(vmf);

        if (write_fault) {
		sb_start_pagefault(inode->i_sb);
		file_update_time(vmf->vma->vm_file);
	}

	xfs_ilock(XFS_I(inode), XFS_MMAPLOCK_SHARED);
	if (IS_DAX(inode)) {
		ret = dax_iomap_fault(vmf, pe_size, &pfn, NULL,
				(write_fault && !vmf->cow_page) ?
				 &xfs_direct_write_iomap_ops :
				 &xfs_read_iomap_ops);
		if (ret & VM_FAULT_NEEDDSYNC)
			ret = dax_finish_sync_fault(vmf, pe_size, pfn);
	} else {
		ret = iomap_page_mkwrite(vmf, &xfs_buffered_write_iomap_ops);
	}
	xfs_iunlock(XFS_I(inode), XFS_MMAPLOCK_SHARED);

	if (write_fault)
		sb_end_pagefault(inode->i_sb);
	return ret;

Same here - while XFS_MMAPLOCK still exists, the comments should
really associate the VFS invalidate lock with the XFS_MMAPLOCK...

Well, that neuters all the "xfs_isilocked(ip, XFS_MMAPLOCK_EXCL)"
checks when lockdep is not enabled. IOWs, CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=y will no
longer report incorrect use of read vs write locking.  That was the
main issue that stopped the last attempt to convert the mrlocks to
plain rwsems.

Yeah, this is the problem - the use of lockdep_is_held_type() here.
We need rwsem_is_write_locked() here, not a dependency on lockdep.

I know, you're only copying the IOLOCK stuff, but I really don't
like the fact that we end up more dependent on lockdep for catching
basic lock usage mistakes. Lockdep is simply not usable in typical
developer QA environment because of the performance overhead and
false positives it introduces. It already takes 3-4 hours to do a
single fstests run on XFS without lockdep and it at least doubles
when lockdep is enabled.  Hence requiring lockdep just to check a
rwsem is held in write mode is not an improvement on the development
and verification side of things....

Cheers,

Dave.
