commit f9e040efcc28309e5c592f7e79085a9a52e31f58 upstream.
The function dax_direct_access doesn't take partitions into account,
it always maps pages from the beginning of the device. Therefore,
persistent_memory_claim() must get the partition offset using
get_start_sect() and add it to the page offsets passed to
dax_direct_access().

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.
