Subject: [PATCH] dax: Fix Xarray conversion of dax_unlock_mapping_entry()

Internal to dax_unlock_mapping_entry(), dax_unlock_entry() is used to
store a replacement entry in the Xarray at the given xas-index with the
DAX_LOCKED bit clear. When called, dax_unlock_entry() expects the unlocked
value of the entry relative to the current Xarray state to be specified.

In most contexts dax_unlock_entry() is operating in the same scope as
the matched dax_lock_entry(). However, in the dax_unlock_mapping_entry()
case the implementation needs to recall the original entry. In the case
where the original entry is a 'pmd' entry it is possible that the pfn
performed to do the lookup is misaligned to the value retrieved in the
Xarray.

When creating the 'unlocked' entry be sure to align it to the expected
size as reflected by the DAX_PMD flag. Otherwise, future lookups become
confused by finding a 'pte' aligned value at an index that should return
a 'pmd' aligned value. This mismatch results in failure signatures like
the following:

 WARNING: CPU: 38 PID: 1396 at fs/dax.c:340 dax_insert_entry+0x2b2/0x2d0
 RIP: 0010:dax_insert_entry+0x2b2/0x2d0
 [..]
 Call Trace:
  dax_iomap_pte_fault.isra.41+0x791/0xde0

  handle_mm_fault+0x18b/0x3d0

...and potential corruption of nearby page state as housekeeping
routines, like dax_disassociate_entry(), may overshoot their expected
bounds starting at the wrong page.
