The inode destruction path for the 'dax' device filesystem incorrectly
assumes that the inode was initialized through 'alloc_dax()'. However,
if someone attempts to directly mount the dax filesystem with 'mount -t
dax dax mnt' that will bypass 'alloc_dax()' and the following failure
signatures may occur as a result:
kill_dax() must be called before final iput()

Add missing initialization of the 'struct dax_device' and inode so that
the destruction path does not kfree() or ida_simple_remove()
uninitialized data.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
