[PATCH V3 4/8] fs/ext4: Update ext4_should_use_dax()

From: ira . weiny
Date: Wed May 20 2020 - 01:58:30 EST


From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx>

S_DAX should only be enabled when the underlying block device supports
dax.

Change ext4_should_use_dax() to check for device support prior to the
over riding mount option.

While we are at it change the function to ext4_should_enable_dax() as
this better reflects the ask as well as matches xfs.
