xfs_get_blocks_dax() isn't defined yet. We should also probably error
check here, yes?
A nit... If we have to update this patch, it would be nice to update the
comment above the function to adjust expectations with regard to the
suggestion that this always allocates blocks. If I follow the dax
codepath correctly, dax_zero_page_range() is a noop over holes or
unwritten blocks (not that it seems to matter for current callers).

FWIW, that looks like a potential positive return code path
(write_begin)...
