Looks good, passes testing. I did fix up the changelog a bit to make
it clearer that this is a fix, not new development, and included more
details about the failing signature from my initial fix. No code
changes. I'll push it out to libnvdimm-fixes for -next to pick up.

dax: Fix unlock mismatch with updated API
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.
Change the api to return return the unlock cookie from dax_lock_page()
and pass it to dax_unlock_page(). This fixes a bug where
dax_unlock_page() was assuming that the page was PMD-aligned if the
entry was a PMD entry with signatures like:
