What it indicates to me is that DAX detects inode/freespace metadata related corruption sooner than non-DAX paths because we don't do delayed allocation on DAX. i.e. we are doing direct allocation in the syscall path and errors that would have been detected in the writeback path and triggered until sync/unmount are now triggering in the pwrite() syscall path. Hence I think this is probably expected behaviour, and not a bug or regression. We probably should just filter the pwrite errors out...
