Subject: [PATCH 1/6] genhd: Add GENHD_FL_DAX to gendisk flags

Currently, presence of direct_access() in block_device_operations
indicates support of DAX on its block device.  Because
block_device_operations is instantiated with 'const', this DAX
capablity may not be enabled conditinally.

In preparation for supporting DAX to device-mapper devices, add
GENHD_FL_DAX to gendisk flags to indicate that this block device
supports DAX.  This will allow to set the DAX capability based on
how mapped device is composed.
