The following commit:

commit 46c043ede471 ("mm: take i_mmap_lock in unmap_mapping_range() for
	DAX")

moved some code in __dax_pmd_fault() that was responsible for zeroing
newly allocated PMD pages.  The new location didn't properly set up
'kaddr', though, so when run this code resulted in a NULL pointer BUG.

Fix this by getting the correct 'kaddr' via bdev_direct_access(), and
only make the second call to bdev_direct_access() if we don't already
have a PFN from the first call.

bdev_direct_access isn't that expensive just call it twice
unconditionally.  We'll be going that direction anyways when we fix
the lifetime of 'kaddr' race in DAX.
