Fixed via a dax_flag_test() helper as I outlined in the mail to Christoph. It
seems clean to me, but if you or Christoph feel strongly that it would be
cleaner as a local 'flags' variable, I'll make the change.

Interesting. Fixed, but let me make sure I understand. So is the issue that
you could have say 2 tasks waiting on a PMD index that has been rounded down
to the PMD index via dax_entry_waitqueue()?
The person holding the lock on the entry would remove the PMD, insert a PTE
and wake just one of the PMD aligned waiters. That waiter would wake up, do
something PTE based (since the PMD space is now polluted with PTEs), and then
wake any waiters on it's PTE index. Meanwhile, the second waiter could sleep
forever on the PMD aligned index. Is this correct?
So, perhaps more succinctly:
Thread 1 Thread 2 Thread 3
-------- -------- --------
index 0x202, hold PMD lock 0x200
index 0x203, sleep on 0x200
index 0x204, sleep on 0x200
downgrade, removing 0x200
wake one waiter on 0x200
insert PTE @ 0x202
wake up, grab index 0x203
...
wake one waiter on index 0x203
... sleeps forever
Right?

Oh, nope, that's embedded in the dax_radix_entry() helper:
/* entries begin locked */
static inline void *dax_radix_entry(sector_t sector, unsigned long flags)
{
return (void *)(RADIX_TREE_EXCEPTIONAL_ENTRY | flags |
((unsigned long)sector << RADIX_DAX_SHIFT) |
RADIX_DAX_ENTRY_LOCK);
}
I'll s/dax_radix_entry/dax_radix_locked_entry/ or something to make this
clearer to the reader.

Yea, the logic was that if we have a radix tree that has PMDs in it, and some
new process comes along doing PTE faults, we can just leave the DAX mapped PMD
entries in the tree. Locking, dirtying and flushing will happen on PMD basis
for all processes.
If you think this is dangerous or not worth the effort we can make it like the
hole case where any PTE sized faults will result in an unmap and a downgrade
to PTE sized entries in the radix tree.

Yep, that's cleaner. Fixed.
