[PATCH v2 3/5] dax: enable dax in the presence of known media errors (badblocks)

From: Vishal Verma <vishal.l.verma@intel.com>
Date: 2016-03-30 01:59:48
Also in: linux-fsdevel, linux-mm, linux-xfs, lkml, nvdimm
Subsystem: block layer, libnvdimm pmem: persistent memory driver, libnvdimm: non-volatile memory device subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Jens Axboe, Dan Williams, Vishal Verma, Dave Jiang, Ira Weiny, Linus Torvalds

From: Dan Williams <redacted>

1/ If a mapping overlaps a bad sector fail the request.

2/ Do not opportunistically report more dax-capable capacity than is
   requested when errors present.
