Hi, xfstests cases: generic/075 generic/112 generic/127 generic/231 generic/263 fail with DAX, pass without it. Both xfs and ext4. It was okay on 0306 -next tree.Thanks for the report. I'm looking into it. -next is all kinds of broken. :(
Just FYI, in case folks are still testing -next:
One other issue that I was hitting was that for many of the commits in -next
kernel modules wouldn't load, which meant that my /dev/pmem0 device wasn't
showing up because I have libnvdimm compiled as a module.
I bisected that issue to this commit:
commit d1091c7fa3d5 ("objtool: Improve detection of BUG() and other dead
ends")
It looks like Xiong also found this issue:

And Linus found it:
