It would be useful to clarify that this is bug was found by inspection
and that there are no known end user reports of trouble but that the
failure more would look like random fs corruption. The window is hard to
hit because a block needs to be truncated, reallocated to
a file, and written to before stale DMA could corrupt it. So that may
contribute to the fact that fuse-dax users have not reported an issue
since v5.10.

That's not what this patch does, maybe a rebase error that pushed the
@dmap_end fixup after the call to dax_layout_busy_page_range?

However, I don't think this is quite the right fix, more below...

It is used in several places and has been wrong since day one. I believe
the original commit simply misunderstood that
dax_layout_busy_page_range() semantics are analogous to
invalidate_inode_pages2_range() semantics in terms of what @start and
@end mean.

You can add:

...if you end up doing a resend, or I will add it on applying to
nvdimm.git if the rebase does not end up being too prickly.
