    block: Add bdev_dax_supported() for dax mount checks · 2d96afc8
    Toshi Kani 提交于
    DAX imposes additional requirements to a device.  Add
    bdev_dax_supported() which performs all the precondition checks
    necessary for filesystem to mount the device with dax option.
    
    Also add a new check to verify if a partition is aligned by 4KB.
    When a partition is unaligned, any dax read/write access fails,
    except for metadata update.
