Pull DAX updates from Dan Williams:
 "Andrew has been shepherding major dax features that touch the core -mm
  through his tree, but I still collect the dax updates that are core-mm
  independent.

   - Fix a crash due to a missing rcu_barrier() in dax_fs_exit()

   - Fix two miscellaneous doc issues"

<title>fs: allocate inode by using alloc_inode_sb()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fd60b28842df833477c42da6a6d63d0d114a5fcc</id>
<content type='text'>
The inode allocation is supposed to use alloc_inode_sb(), so convert
kmem_cache_alloc() of all filesystems to alloc_inode_sb().

struct dax_device has a member named ops which was undocumented.

Add the kdoc.

A bug can be triggered by following command

[   10.060014] BUG dax_cache (Not tainted): Objects remaining in dax_cache on __kmem_cache_shutdown()

This is caused by dax_fs_exit() not flushing inodes before destroy cache.
To fix this issue, call rcu_barrier() before destroy cache.

<title>dax: remove the copy_from_iter and copy_to_iter methods</title>

<content type='text'>
These methods indirect the actual DAX read/write path.  In the end pmem
uses magic flush and mc safe variants and fuse and dcssblk use plain ones
while device mapper picks redirects to the underlying device.

Add set_dax_nocache() and set_dax_nomc() APIs to control which copy
routines are used to remove indirect call from the read/write fast path
as well as a lot of boilerplate code.

Remove the DAXDEV_F_SYNC flag and thus the flags argument to alloc_dax and
just let the drivers call set_dax_synchronous directly.
