Subject: dax: use pfn_mkwrite to update c/mtime + freeze protection
[v1]
Without this patch, c/mtime is not updated correctly when mmap'ed page is
first read from and then written to.
A new xfstest is submitted for testing this (generic/080)
[v2]
Jan Kara has pointed out that if we add the
sb_start/end_pagefault pair in the new pfn_mkwrite we
are then fixing another bug where: A user could start
writing to the page while filesystem is frozen.
