Subject: [PATCH v7 05/14] ext4, dax: introduce ext4_dax_aops

In preparation for the dax implementation to start associating dax pages
to inodes via page->mapping, we need to provide a 'struct
address_space_operations' instance for dax. Otherwise, direct-I/O
triggers incorrect page cache assumptions and warnings.
