Subject: [PATCH v2 1/8] fsdax: introduce page->share for fsdax in reflink mode

fsdax page is used not only when CoW, but also mapread. To make the it
easily understood, use 'share' to indicate that the dax page is shared
by more than one extent.  And add helper functions to use it.

Also, the flag needs to be renamed to PAGE_MAPPING_DAX_SHARED.
