This patch introduces 'daxdev_mapping_supported' helper
which checks if 'MAP_SYNC' is supported with filesystem
mapping. It also checks if corresponding dax_device is
synchronous. Virtio pmem device is asynchronous and
does not not support VM_SYNC.

Thanks for the patch! I'd restructure this comment like:

/*
 * Check if given mapping is supported by the file / underlying device.
 */

This looks wrong. Shouldn't it rather be:

	return !(vma->flags & VM_SYNC);

?
