Previously the pfn_mkwrite() fault handler for raw block devices called bldev_dax_fault() -> __dax_fault() to do a full DAX page fault. Really what the pfn_mkwrite() fault handler needs to do is call dax_pfn_mkwrite() to make sure that the radix tree entry for the given PTE is marked as dirty so that a follow-up fsync or msync call will flush it durably to media.
