[PATCH v2 11/14] filesystem-dax: Make mount time pfn validation a debug check

[Dan Williams]

Do not ask for dax_direct_access() to retrieve a pfn in the
DAX_DRIVER_DEBUG=n case. This avoids an early call to memmap_sync() in
the driver.

Now that QUEUE_FLAG_DAX usage has been fixed the validation of the pfn
is only useful for dax driver developers. It is safe to assume that
pmem, dcssblk, and device-mapper-dax are correct with respect to dax
operation, so only retrieve the pfn for debug builds when qualifying a
new dax driver, if one ever arrives.

The moves the first consumption of a pfn from ->direct_access() to the
first dax mapping fault, rather than initial filesystem mount. I.e. more
time for memmap init to run in the background.
