Pull DAX updates from Dan Williams:
 "The completion of Jan's DAX work for 4.10.

  As I mentioned in the libnvdimm-for-4.10 pull request, these are some
  final fixes for the DAX dirty-cacheline-tracking invalidation work
  that was merged through the -mm, ext4, and xfs trees in -rc1. These
  patches were prepared prior to the merge window, but we waited for
  4.10-rc1 to have a stable merge base after all the prerequisites were
  merged.

  Quoting Jan on the overall changes in these patches:

     "So I'd like all these 6 patches to go for rc2. The first three
      patches fix invalidation of exceptional DAX entries (a bug which
      is there for a long time) - without these patches data loss can
      occur on power failure even though user called fsync(2). The other
      three patches change locking of DAX faults so that ->iomap_begin()
      is called in a more relaxed locking context and we are safe to
      start a transaction there for ext4"

  These have received a build success notification from the kbuild
  robot, and pass the latest libnvdimm unit tests. There have not been
  any -next releases since -rc1, so they have not appeared there"

* 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm:
  ext4: Simplify DAX fault path
  dax: Call ->iomap_begin without entry lock during dax fault
  dax: Finish fault completely when loading holes
  dax: Avoid page invalidation races and unnecessary radix tree traversals
  mm: Invalidate DAX radix tree entries only if appropriate
  ext2: Return BH_New buffers for zeroed blocks
