Just a minor nit on this change.  Is this still called in frame_vector.c?  I
thought I saw a patch from Daniel Vetter which removed that?  Ah yea...

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201127164131.2244124-6-daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx/

Regardless even if vma_is_fsdax() is still called there I don't think this will
change anything there, other than making that code faster when FS_DAX is not
configured.

So perfect...
