I like the idea however see below:

But now it's really unexpected that you change pgoff and gfp_mask because
that will propagate back to the caller and if we return VM_FAULT_FALLBACK
we may fault in wrong PTE because of this. So dax_iomap_pmd_fault() should
not modify the passed gfp_mask, just make its callers clear __GFP_FS from
it because *they* are responsible for acquiring locks / transactions that
block __GFP_FS allocations. They are also responsible for restoring
original gfp_mask once dax_iomap_pmd_fault() returns.

dax_iomap_pmd_fault() needs to modify pgoff however it must restore it to
the original value before it returns.

Otherwise the patch looks good to me.
