[PATCH 00/10] fsdax: introduce fs query to support reflink

This patchset is aimed to support shared pages tracking for fsdax.

Change from RFC v3:
- Do not lock dax entry in memory failure handler
- Add a helper function for corrupted_range
- Add restrictions in xfs code
- Fix code style
- remove the useless association and lock in fsdax

Change from RFC v2:
- Adjust the order of patches
- Divide the infrastructure and the drivers that use it
- Rebased to v5.10

Change from RFC v1:
- Introduce ->block_lost() for block device
- Support mapped device
- Add 'not available' warning for realtime device in XFS
- Rebased to v5.10-rc1

This patchset moves owner tracking from dax_assocaite_entry() to pmem
device driver, by introducing an interface ->memory_failure() of struct
pagemap. This interface is called by memory_failure() in mm, and
implemented by pmem device. Then pmem device calls its ->corrupted_range()
to find the filesystem which the corrupted data located in, and call
filesystem handler to track files or metadata assocaited with this page.
Finally we are able to try to fix the corrupted data in filesystem and do
other necessary processing, such as killing processes who are using the
files affected.

The call trace is like this:
memory_failure()
pgmap->ops->memory_failure() => pmem_pgmap_memory_failure()
gendisk->fops->corrupted_range() => - pmem_corrupted_range()
- md_blk_corrupted_range()
sb->s_ops->currupted_range() => xfs_fs_corrupted_range()
xfs_rmap_query_range()
xfs_currupt_helper()
* corrupted on metadata
try to recover data, call xfs_force_shutdown()
* corrupted on file data
try to recover data, call mf_dax_mapping_kill_procs()

The fsdax & reflink support for XFS is not contained in this patchset.

(Rebased on v5.10)
