Changes since v2 [1]:
* rebase on -next to integrate with commit 273752c9ff03 "dm, dax: Make
  sure dm_dax_flush() is called if device supports it" (kbuild robot)
* fix CONFIG_DAX dependencies to upgrade CONFIG_DAX=m to CONFIG_DAX=y
  (kbuild robot)

Bart points out that the DAX core is unconditionally enabled if
device-mapper is enabled. Add some config machinery and some
stub-static-inline routines to allow dax infrastructure to be deleted
from device-mapper at compile time.

Since this depends on commit 273752c9ff03 that's already in -next, this
should go through the device-mapper tree.

      dax: introduce CONFIG_DAX_DRIVER
