From: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 72d1249e2ffdbc344e465031ec5335fa3489d62e upstream.
STATX_ATTR_MOUNT_ROOT and STATX_ATTR_DAX got merged with the same value,
so one of them needs fixing. Move STATX_ATTR_DAX.
While we're in here, clarify the value-matching scheme for some of the
attributes, and explain why the value for DAX does not match.
Fixes: 80340fe3605c ("statx: add mount_root")
Fixes: 712b2698e4c0 ("fs/stat: Define DAX statx attribute")
