The functionality for block device DAX was already removed with this

commit acc93d30d7d4 ("Revert "block: enable dax for raw block devices"")

However, we still had a config option hanging around that was always
disabled because it depended on CONFIG_BROKEN. This config option was
introduced in this commit:

commit 03cdadb04077 ("block: disable block device DAX by default")

This change reverts that commit, removing the dead config option.

This doesn't apply to master, nor for-linus. I hand applied it.
