Introduce a PAGE_MAPPING_DAX_COW flag to support association with CoW file
mappings. In this case, the dax-RMAP already takes the responsibility
to look up for shared files by given dax page. The page->mapping is no
longer to used for rmap but for marking that this dax page is shared.
And to make sure disassociation works fine, we use page->index as
refcount, and clear page->mapping to the initial state when page->index
is decreased to 0.
With the help of this new flag, it is able to distinguish normal case
and CoW case, and keep the warning in normal case.
