Hi Matthew

As pointed out by Dave Chinner, I think we must add the below hunks to this patch.
I do not see a case where it is allowed with current DAX code for any FS to
enable both DAX access/mmap in parallel to any buffered read/write.

Do we want to also put a
	WARN_ON(IS_DAX(inode));

In generic_perform_write and/or in extX->write_begin() ?
