[PATCH 8/8] xfs: add initial DAX support

[Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

Add initial DAX support to XFS. To do this we need a new mount
option to turn DAX on filesystem, and we need to propagate thi into
the inode flags whenever an inode is instantiated so that the
per-inode checks throughout the code Do The Right Thing.

There are still some things remaining to be done:

	- needs per-inode flags to mark inodes as DAX enabled, and
	  an inheritance flag to enable automatic filesystem
	  propagation of the property
	- fails occasionally with zero length writes instead of
	  ENOSPC errors, so error propagation inside/from the DAX
	  code need work
	- occasionally creates two extents rather than a single
	  larger extent like non-dax filesystems.
	- much more testing
