[PATCH v3 1/2] dax: introduce CONFIG_DAX_DRIVER

From: Dan Williams
Date: Wed Aug 02 2017 - 14:04:48 EST


In support of allowing device-mapper to compile out idle/dead code when
there are no dax providers in the system, introduce the DAX_DRIVER
symbol. This is selected by all leaf drivers that device-mapper might be
layered on top. This allows device-mapper to 'select DAX', i.e. upgrade
it from DAX=m to DAX=y, when a provider is present.
