For DAX msync we just need to flush the given range using
wb_cache_pmem(), which is now a public part of the PMEM API.

The inclusion of <linux/dax.h> in fs/dax.c was done to make checkpatch
happy.  Previously it was complaining about a bunch of undeclared
functions that could be made static.
Should this be abstracted by adding a ->msync method?  Maybe not
worth to do for now, but it might be worth to keep that in mind.

Otherwise this looks fine to me.
