Pull misc DAX updates from Vishal Verma:
 "DAX error handling for 4.7

   - Until now, dax has been disabled if media errors were found on any
     device.  This enables the use of DAX in the presence of these
     errors by making all sector-aligned zeroing go through the driver.

   - The driver (already) has the ability to clear errors on writes that
     are sent through the block layer using 'DSMs' defined in ACPI 6.1.

  Other misc changes:

   - When mounting DAX filesystems, check to make sure the partition is
     page aligned.  This is a requirement for DAX, and previously, we
     allowed such unaligned mounts to succeed, but subsequent
     reads/writes would fail.

   - Misc/cleanup fixes from Jan that remove unused code from DAX
     related to zeroing, writeback, and some size checks"

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "The bulk of this update was stabilized before the merge window and
  appeared in -next.  The "device dax" implementation was revised this
  week in response to review feedback, and to address failures detected
  by the recently expanded ndctl unit test suite.

  Not included in this pull request are two dax topic branches (dax
  error handling, and dax radix-tree locking).  These topics were
  deferred to get a few more days of -next integration testing, and to
  coordinate a branch baseline with Ted and the ext4 tree.  Vishal and
  Ross will send the error handling and locking topics respectively in
  the next few days.

  This branch has received a positive build result from the kbuild robot
  across 226 configs.

  Summary:

   - Device DAX for persistent memory: Device DAX is the device-centric
     analogue of Filesystem DAX (CONFIG_FS_DAX).  It allows memory
     ranges to be allocated and mapped without need of an intervening
     file system.  Device DAX is strict, precise and predictable.
     Specifically this interface:

      a) Guarantees fault granularity with respect to a given page size
         (pte, pmd, or pud) set at configuration time.

      b) Enforces deterministic behavior by being strict about what
         fault scenarios are supported.

     Persistent memory is the first target, but the mechanism is also
     targeted for exclusive allocations of performance/feature
     differentiated memory ranges.

   - Support for the HPE DSM (device specific method) command formats.
     This enables management of these first generation devices until a
     unified DSM specification materializes.

   - Further ACPI 6.1 compliance with support for the common dimm
     identifier format.

   - Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem"

<title>block: Update blkdev_dax_capable() for consistency</title>

<content type='text'>
blkdev_dax_capable() is similar to bdev_dax_supported(), but needs
to remain as a separate interface for checking dax capability of
a raw block device.

Rename and relocate blkdev_dax_capable() to keep them maintained
consistently, and call bdev_direct_access() for the dax capability
check.

There is no change in the behavior.

<title>block: Add bdev_dax_supported() for dax mount checks</title>

<content type='text'>
DAX imposes additional requirements to a device.  Add
bdev_dax_supported() which performs all the precondition checks
necessary for filesystem to mount the device with dax option.

Also add a new check to verify if a partition is aligned by 4KB.
When a partition is unaligned, any dax read/write access fails,
except for metadata update.

<id>urn:sha1:2af3a8159cd204fc8437ed2f75863f0fb930f0d0</id>
<content type='text'>
In preparation of moving DAX capability checks to the block layer
from filesystem code, add a VFS message interface that aligns with
filesystem's message format.

For instance, a vfs_msg() message followed by XFS messages in case
of a dax mount error may look like:

  VFS (pmem0p1): error: unaligned partition for dax
  XFS (pmem0p1): DAX unsupported by block device. Turning off DAX.
  XFS (pmem0p1): Mounting V5 Filesystem
   :

vfs_msg() is largely based on ext4_msg().

Fault handlers currently take complete_unwritten argument to convert
unwritten extents after PTEs are updated. However no filesystem uses
this anymore as the code is racy. Remove the unused argument.

The kiocb already has the new position, so use that.  The only interesting
case is AIO, where we currently don't bother updating ki_pos.  We're about
to free the kiocb after we're done, so we might as well update it to make
everyone's life simpler.

While we're at it also return the bytes written argument passed in if
we were successful so that the boilerplate error switch code in the
callers can go away.
