Dan Williams c2a7d2a115 filesystem-dax: Introduce dax_lock_mapping_entry()
In preparation for implementing support for memory poison (media error)
handling via dax mappings, implement a lock_page() equivalent. Poison
error handling requires rmap and needs guarantees that the page->mapping
association is maintained / valid (inode not freed) for the duration of
the lookup.

In the device-dax case it is sufficient to simply hold a dev_pagemap
reference. In the filesystem-dax case we need to use the entry lock.

Export the entry lock via dax_lock_mapping_entry() that uses
rcu_read_lock() to protect against the inode being freed, and
revalidates the page->mapping association under xa_lock().

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
