From: John Groves <john@groves.net>

On completion of GET_FMAP message/response, setup the full famfs
metadata such that it's possible to handle read/write/mmap directly to
dax. Note that the devdax_iomap plumbing is not in yet...

* Add famfs_kfmap.h: in-memory structures for resolving famfs file maps
  (fmaps) to dax.
* famfs.c: allocate, initialize and free fmaps
* inode.c: only allow famfs mode if the fuse server has CAP_SYS_RAWIO
* Update MAINTAINERS for the new file.
