Subject: [PATCH 4/5] dax: use sb_issue_zerout instead of calling dax_clear_sectors

From: Matthew Wilcox <matthew.r.wilcox@...el.com>

dax_clear_sectors() cannot handle poisoned blocks.  These must be
zeroed using the BIO interface instead.  Convert ext2 and XFS to use
only sb_issue_zerout().

Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <matthew.r.wilcox@...el.com>
[vishal: Also remove the dax_clear_sectors function entirely]
