[PATCH v3 2/2] dm: allow device-mapper to operate without dax support

From: Dan Williams
Date: Wed Aug 02 2017 - 14:04:42 EST


Rather than have device-mapper directly 'select DAX', let the fact that
BLK_DEV_PMEM selects dax act as a gate for the device-mapper dax
support. We arrange for all the dax core routines to compile to nops
when CONFIG_DAX=n. With that in place we can simply handle the
alloc_dax() error as expected and ifdef out the other device-mapper-dax
support code.

Now, if dax is provided by a leaf driver that driver may only arrange to
compile the dax core as a module. Since device-mapper dax support is
consumed by the always-built-in portion of the device-mapper
implementation we need to upgrade from DAX=m to DAX=y.
