[PATCH RFC 6/8] fs/ext4: Update ext4_should_use_dax()

From: ira . weiny
Date: Tue Apr 14 2020 - 00:01:13 EST


From: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@xxxxxxxxx>

Change the logic of ext4_should_use_dax() to support using the inode dax
flag OR the overriding tri-state mount option.

While we are at it change the function to ext4_enable_dax() as this
better reflects the ask.
