Subject: [PATCH v4 02/12] dax: introduce IS_DEVDAX() and IS_FSDAX()

The current IS_DAX() helper that checks the S_DAX inode flag is
ambiguous, and currently has the broken assumption that the S_DAX flag
is only non-zero in the CONFIG_FS_DAX=y case. In preparation for
defining S_DAX to non-zero in the  CONFIG_FS_DAX=n + CONFIG_DEV_DAX=y
case, introduce two explicit helpers to replace IS_DAX().
