Subject: [Patch 4/4] Support for obtaining reduced view of a graded file

In this patch, we provide changes in the new introduced page fault for
a reduced view of the file with only high graded blocks. An example
could be of accessing only the annotated part of an indexed video as
given in the overall patch description. The instruction of whether to
give a reduced view of file is passed as an extended attribute
“read_high” which has to be set by the user before reading the file in
the user-space. We make further changes in dax.c for this so that we
can skip over the lower graded blocks.
In dax.c the new functions introduced are __graded_dax_fault() and
graded_dax_insert_mapping().
The patch is on top of Linux Kernel 4.7.2.
