dax_do_io (called for read() or write() for a dax file system) may fail
in the presence of bad blocks or media errors. Since we expect that a
write should clear media errors on nvdimms, make dax_do_io fall back to
the direct_IO path, which will send down a bio to the driver, which can
then attempt to clear the error.
