Currently dax mappings survive block_device shutdown.  While page cache
pages are permitted to be read/written after the block_device is torn
down this is not acceptable in the dax case as all media access must end
when the device is disabled.  The pfn backing a dax mapping is permitted
to be invalidated after bdev shutdown and this is indeed the case with
brd.

When a dax capable block_device driver calls del_gendisk() in its
shutdown path, or a filesystem evicts an inode it needs to ensure that
all the pfns that had been mapped via bdev_direct_access() are unmapped.
This is different than the pagecache backed case where
truncate_inode_pages() is sufficient to end I/O to pages mapped to a
dying inode.

Since dax bypasses the page cache we need to unmap in addition to
truncating pages.  Also, since dax mappings are not accounted in the
mapping radix we uncoditionally truncate all inodes with the S_DAX flag.
Likely when we add support for dynamic dax enable/disable control we'll
have infrastructure to detect if the inode is unmapped and can skip the
truncate.

Hum, I don't get this. truncate_inode_pages_final() gets called when inode
has no more users. So there are no mappings of the inode. So how could
truncate_pagecache() possibly make a difference?
