Linus Torvalds 3acbdbf42e dax + libnvdimm for v5.17
- Simplify the dax_operations API
   - Eliminate bdev_dax_pgoff() in favor of the filesystem maintaining
     and applying a partition offset to all its DAX iomap operations.
   - Remove wrappers and device-mapper stacked callbacks for
     ->copy_from_iter() and ->copy_to_iter() in favor of moving
     block_device relative offset responsibility to the
     dax_direct_access() caller.
   - Remove the need for an @bdev in filesystem-DAX infrastructure
   - Remove unused uio helpers copy_from_iter_flushcache() and
     copy_mc_to_iter() as only the non-check_copy_size() versions are
     used for DAX.
 - Prepare XFS for the pending (next merge window) DAX+reflink support
 - Remove deprecated DEV_DAX_PMEM_COMPAT support
 - Cleanup a straggling misuse of the GUID api

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-5.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

Pull dax and libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "The bulk of this is a rework of the dax_operations API after
  discovering the obstacles it posed to the work-in-progress DAX+reflink
  support for XFS and other copy-on-write filesystem mechanics.

  Primarily the need to plumb a block_device through the API to handle
  partition offsets was a sticking point and Christoph untangled that
  dependency in addition to other cleanups to make landing the
  DAX+reflink support easier.

  The DAX_PMEM_COMPAT option has been around for 4 years and not only
  are distributions shipping userspace that understand the current
  configuration API, but some are not even bothering to turn this option
  on anymore, so it seems a good time to remove it per the deprecation
  schedule. Recall that this was added after the device-dax subsystem
  moved from /sys/class/dax to /sys/bus/dax for its sysfs organization.
  All recent functionality depends on /sys/bus/dax.

  Some other miscellaneous cleanups and reflink prep patches are
  included as well.

  Summary:

   - Simplify the dax_operations API:

      - Eliminate bdev_dax_pgoff() in favor of the filesystem
        maintaining and applying a partition offset to all its DAX iomap
        operations.

      - Remove wrappers and device-mapper stacked callbacks for
        ->copy_from_iter() and ->copy_to_iter() in favor of moving
        block_device relative offset responsibility to the
        dax_direct_access() caller.

      - Remove the need for an @bdev in filesystem-DAX infrastructure

      - Remove unused uio helpers copy_from_iter_flushcache() and
        copy_mc_to_iter() as only the non-check_copy_size() versions are
        used for DAX.

   - Prepare XFS for the pending (next merge window) DAX+reflink support

   - Remove deprecated DEV_DAX_PMEM_COMPAT support

   - Cleanup a straggling misuse of the GUID api"
