From: Huaisheng Ye <yehs1@xxxxxxxxxx> Some functions within fs/dax don't need to get gfn from direct_access. Assigning NULL to gfn of dax_direct_access is more intuitive and simple than offering a useless local variable. So direct_access needs to check validity of the pointer pfn For NULL assignment.
