Hi
So what I see, (I might be wrong), is that once this flag is set here the
fs (At above xfs_diflags_to_iflags() ) will start serving DAX inodes.
This is a problem because the bdev passed in might not support direct_access
at all.
I think we might want a dax_supported(sb) and call somewhere at mount time.

If we agree about the s_flags MS_MOUNT_DAX then we can define a
if (MNTOPT_DAX)
dax_enable_if_supported(sb);
This will try a call to bdev_direct_access(sb->s_bdev, ...) and set the
flag if everything is OK, else will leave it off.
