[1/2] block, dax: move "select DAX" from BLOCK to FS_DAX

For configurations that do not enable DAX filesystems or drivers, do not
require the DAX core to be built.

The only core block routine that calls a DAX routine is
bdev_dax_supported(), that now fails by default as expected if FS_DAX=n,
or no DAX-capable drivers are configured.

I ran into the same issue if CONFIG_DAX=m (it's still selected by some other
modular symbol). #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DAX) is true in the modular case, so
the dummies provided by include/linux/dax.h are not used.

However, while changing it to #ifdef CONFIG_DAX allows to build vmlinux, it
leads to other issues as DAX is compiled as a module:

    drivers/dax/super.c:35: error: redefinition of ‘dax_read_lock’
    include/linux/dax.h:30: error: previous definition of
‘dax_read_lock’ was here

Yes, calling into optional modular code from builtin code in fs/blockdev.c is
tricky ;-(  Perhaps you can make bdev_dax_supported() a small wrapper
that calls into the real code through a function pointer, when the DAX module
is available?

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

In fact, that is close to what I did for v2, and it passed a full run
through the kbuild robot. I'll send it out shortly.
