Add a flag so that the file system can easily detect DAX operations based just on the iomap operation requested instead of looking at inode state using IS_DAX. This will be needed to apply the to be added partition offset only for operations that actually use DAX, but not things like fiemap that are based on the block device. In the long run it should also allow turning the bdev, dax_dev and inline_data into a union.

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.
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.
