True.  I confirmed with more focus testing that the change to
truncate_inode_pages_final() is not necessary.  After
invalidate_inodes() does unmap_mapping_range() we are protected by
future calls to get_block() and blk_queue_enter() failing when there
are attempts to re-establish a mapping after the block device has been
torn down.

Here's a revised patch.  Note that the call truncate_pagecache() is
replaced with a call to unmap_mapping_range() since it is fine to
access zero pages that might still be in the page cache.

Subject: mm, dax: unmap dax mappings at bdev or fs shutdown

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx>

Currently dax mappings leak past / survive block_device shutdown.  While
page cache pages are permitted to be read/written after the block_device
is torn down this is not acceptable in the dax case as all media access
must end when the device is disabled.  The pfn backing a dax mapping is
permitted to be invalidated after bdev shutdown and this is indeed the
case with brd.

When a dax capable block_device driver calls del_gendisk() in its
shutdown path del_gendisk() needs to ensure that all DAX pfns are
unmapped.  This is different than the pagecache backed case where the
disk is protected by the queue being torn down which ends I/O to the
device.  Since dax bypasses the page cache we need to unconditionally
unmap the inode.
