Subject: [PATCH v3 2/6] dax: fix dax_mapping() definition in the FS_DAX=n +
 DEV_DAX=y case

An address_space will only have dax exceptional entries when FS_DAX is
enabled. The current reliance on S_DAX causes compile failures when
S_DAX is defined for DEV_DAX, but FS_DAX is disabled. Make dax_mapping()
always return false so that mm/truncate.c drops its link time
dependencies on fs/dax.c.
