This patchset is attempt to add CoW support for fsdax, and take XFS,
which has both reflink and fsdax feature, as an example.

Changes from V4:
 - Fix the mistake of breaking dax layout for two inodes
 - Add CONFIG_FS_DAX judgement for fsdax code in remap_range.c
 - Fix other small problems and mistakes

Changes from V3:
 - Take out the first 3 patches as a cleanup patchset[1], which has been
    sent yesterday.
 - Fix usage of code in dax_iomap_cow_copy()
 - Add comments for macro definitions
 - Fix other code style problems and mistakes

One of the key mechanism need to be implemented in fsdax is CoW.  Copy
the data from srcmap before we actually write data to the destance
iomap.  And we just copy range in which data won't be changed.

Another mechanism is range comparison.  In page cache case, readpage()
is used to load data on disk to page cache in order to be able to
compare data.  In fsdax case, readpage() does not work.  So, we need
another compare data with direct access support.

With the two mechanisms implemented in fsdax, we are able to make reflink
and fsdax work together in XFS.

Some of the patches are picked up from Goldwyn's patchset.  I made some
changes to adapt to this patchset.


(Rebased on v5.13-rc1 and patchset[1])

Slightly off topic, but I noticed all my pmem disappeared once I rolled
forward to 5.13-rc1.  Am I the only lucky one?  Qemu 4.2, with fake
memory devices backed by tmpfs files -- info qtree says they're there,
but the kernel doesn't show anything in /proc/iomem.

I have the same situation on 5.13-rc1 too. (Qemu 5.2.0, fake memory device backed by files)
I tested this code in v5.12-rc8 and then rebased it to v5.13-rc1...  It's my bad for not testing again.
