Joao Martins 0e7325f03f device-dax: set mapping prior to vmf_insert_pfn{,_pmd,pud}()
Normally, the @page mapping is set prior to inserting the page into a
page table entry.  Make device-dax adhere to the same ordering, rather
than setting mapping after the PTE is inserted.

The address_space never changes and it is always associated with the
same inode and underlying pages.  So, the page mapping is set once but
cleared when the struct pages are removed/freed (i.e.  after
{devm_}memunmap_pages()).

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.
