John Garry 68456d05eb xfs: disallow atomic writes on DAX
Atomic writes are not currently supported for DAX, but two problems exist:
- we may go down DAX write path for IOCB_ATOMIC, which does not handle
  IOCB_ATOMIC properly
- we report non-zero atomic write limits in statx (for DAX inodes)

We may want atomic writes support on DAX in future, but just disallow for
now.

For this, ensure when IOCB_ATOMIC is set that we check the write size
versus the atomic write min and max before branching off to the DAX write
path. This is not strictly required for DAX, as we should not get this far
in the write path as FMODE_CAN_ATOMIC_WRITE should not be set.

In addition, due to reflink being supported for DAX, we automatically get
CoW-based atomic writes support being advertised. Remedy this by
disallowing atomic writes for a DAX inode for both sw and hw modes.

README

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 reStructuredText 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.
