      Merge branch 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm · 4759d386

      Pull DAX updates from Dan Williams:
       "The completion of Jan's DAX work for 4.10.
      
        As I mentioned in the libnvdimm-for-4.10 pull request, these are some
        final fixes for the DAX dirty-cacheline-tracking invalidation work
        that was merged through the -mm, ext4, and xfs trees in -rc1. These
        patches were prepared prior to the merge window, but we waited for
        4.10-rc1 to have a stable merge base after all the prerequisites were
        merged.
      
        Quoting Jan on the overall changes in these patches:
      
           "So I'd like all these 6 patches to go for rc2. The first three
            patches fix invalidation of exceptional DAX entries (a bug which
            is there for a long time) - without these patches data loss can
            occur on power failure even though user called fsync(2). The other
            three patches change locking of DAX faults so that ->iomap_begin()
            is called in a more relaxed locking context and we are safe to
            start a transaction there for ext4"
      
        These have received a build success notification from the kbuild
        robot, and pass the latest libnvdimm unit tests. There have not been
        any -next releases since -rc1, so they have not appeared there"
      
      * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm:
        ext4: Simplify DAX fault path
        dax: Call ->iomap_begin without entry lock during dax fault
        dax: Finish fault completely when loading holes
        dax: Avoid page invalidation races and unnecessary radix tree traversals
        mm: Invalidate DAX radix tree entries only if appropriate
        ext2: Return BH_New buffers for zeroed blocks
