It seems to me that just passing the holder and holder ops to
fs_dax_get_by_bdev and the holder to dax_unregister_holder would
significantly simply the interface here.

Dan, what do you think?

No real need for the IS_ENABLED.  Also any reason to even build this
file if the options are not set?  It seems like
xfs_dax_holder_operations should just be defined to NULL and the
whole file not supported if we can't support the functionality.

Dan: not for this series, but is there any reason not to require
MEMORY_FAILURE for DAX to start with?

This should use bdev_nr_bytes.

But didn't we say we don't want to support notifications on partitioned
devices and thus don't actually need all this?

No need for the inner braces.

> +	if ((offset + len) > ddev_end)

No need for the braces either.

Dowe really need a new header for this vs just sequeezing it into
xfs_super.h or something like that?

Right now we can't even enable reflink with DAX yet, so adding this
here seems premature - it should go into the patch allowing DAX+reflink.
