Subject: [RFC PATCH 10/15] drivers/dax: Expand lock scope to cover the use of addresses

From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@...el.com>

The addition of PKS protection to dax read lock/unlock will require that
the address returned by dax_direct_access() be protected by this lock.

While not technically necessary for this series, this corrects the
locking by ensuring that the use of kaddr and end_kaddr are covered by
the dax read lock/unlock.

Change the lock scope to cover the kaddr and end_kaddr use.
