[PATCH v7 0/9] DAX fsync/msync support

[Ross Zwisler]

Changes since v6 [1]:

1) Fixed an existing NULL pointer dereference bug in __dax_dbg() in patch 1.

2) Fixed an existing bug with the way holes are converted into DAX PMD
entries in patch 2.  This solves a BUG_ON reported by Dan Williams.

3) Removed second verification of our radix tree entry before cache flush
in dax_writeback_one(). (Jan Kara)

4) Updated to the new argument list types for dax_pmd_dbg(). (Dan Williams)

5) Fixed the text of a random debug message so that it accurately reflects
the error being found.

This series replaces v6 in the MM tree and in the "akpm" branch of the next
tree.  A working tree can be found here:
