    Pull DAX locking updates from Ross Zwisler:
     "Filesystem DAX locking for 4.7
    
       - We use a bit in an exceptional radix tree entry as a lock bit and
         use it similarly to how page lock is used for normal faults.  This
         fixes races between hole instantiation and read faults of the same
         index.
    
       - Filesystem DAX PMD faults are disabled, and will be re-enabled when
         PMD locking is implemented"
