Hi Ross,

I am seeing a major performance loss in fio mmap test with this patch-
set applied.  This happens with or without my patches [1] applied on
top of yours.  Without my patches, dax_pmd_fault() falls back to the
pte handler since an mmap'ed address is not 2MB-aligned.

I have attached three test results.
 o rc4.log - 4.8.0-rc4 (base)
 o non-pmd.log - 4.8.0-rc4 + your patchset (fall back to pte)
 o pmd.log - 4.8.0-rc4 + your patchset + my patchset (use pmd maps)

My test steps are as follows.

mkfs.ext4 -O bigalloc -C 2M /dev/pmem0
mount -o dax /dev/pmem0 /mnt/pmem0
numactl --preferred block:pmem0 --cpunodebind block:pmem0 fio test.fio

"test.fio"
---
[global]
bs=4k
size=2G
directory=/mnt/pmem0
ioengine=mmap
[randrw]
rw=randrw
---

Can you please take a look?
Thanks,
-Toshi
