Looks good to me, though I think this patch applies to ... wherever all
those rmap+reflink+dax patches went. I think that's akpm's tree, right?

Ideally this would go in through there to keep the pieces together, but
I don't mind tossing this in at the end of the 5.20 merge window if akpm
is unwilling.
