Yes, I think I made it a mess... I should reorganize this whole patchset.

The mf_dax_kill_procs() is used by xfs in patch 9. I was mean to refactor these code for the next patches usage.

You can find this logic in patch 5.

When it comes to memory-failure() and memory_failure_dev_pagemap(), after some check, it will try to call pgmap->ops->memory_failure(). If this interface is implemented, for example pgmap is pmem device, it will call the dax_dev holder stack. And finally, it comes to mf_dax_kill_procs().
However, if something wrong happens in this stack, such as feature not support or interface not implemented, it will roll back to normal memory-failure hanlder which is refactored as mf_generic_kill_porcs().

So, I think we are in agreement on this.

Let me reorganize these code.

add_to_kill() in collect_procs() needs this. Please see explanation at below.

Here is the explanation: For normal page, it associate file's mapping and offset to page->mapping, page->index for rmap tracking. But for fsdax, in order to support reflink, we no longer use this mechanism, using dax_device holder stack instead. Thus, this dax page->mapping is NULL. As a result, we need is_device_fsdax_page(p) to distinguish if a page is a fsdax page and calculate this tk->addr manually.

Yes, they are the core we need. But there are some small different when dealing with normal page and dax page. So, I factor these two core functions into two helpers. One is mf_generic_kill_procs() for normal page. Another is mf_dax_kill_procs() for dax page.
