4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 56bdf855e676f1f2ed7033f288f57dfd315725ba upstream. According to the commit that implemented per-inode DAX flag: commit 58f88ca2df72 ("xfs: introduce per-inode DAX enablement") the flag is supposed to act as "inherit flag". Currently this only works in the situations where parent directory already has a flag in di_flags set, otherwise inheritance does not work. This is because setting the XFS_DIFLAG2_DAX flag is done in a wrong branch designated for di_flags, not di_flags2. Fix this by moving the code to branch designated for setting di_flags2, which does test for flags in di_flags2.
