Introduce RWF_RECOVERY_DATA flag to preadv2() and pwritev2()
for the purpose of recovering data loss due to dax media error.
Hence the functionality ties to the underlying media and driver
with capability to clear media error(s) on the fly.
When this flag is provided with preadv2(), preadv2() will attempt
to read as much data as possible until the poisoned page is
encountered.
When the flag is provided with pwritev2(), pwritev2() will attempt
to clear media error within the user specified range and then write
the user provided data to the range. Both the range and length
parameters must be page aligned in order get the recovery process
to work.
