Subject: [RFC PATCH 7/7] xfs: Use dax_is_supported()

Use dax_is_supported() to validate whether the architecture has
virtually aliased caches at mount time.

This is relevant for architectures which require a dynamic check
to validate whether they have virtually aliased data caches
(ARCH_HAS_CACHE_ALIASING_DYNAMIC=y).

Fixes: d92576f1167c ("dax: does not work correctly with virtual aliasing caches")
