[PATCH 0/2] Support DAX for device-mapper dm-linear devices

I noticed that dm-snap reloads DM table of target mapped-device, which
fails for dax-capable device after dax support is added.  Ideally,
adding dax support to dm-snap solves the issue, but it cannot be done
easily.  This patch-set allows dm-snap to work with dax-capable target
devices when bio-based operation is used.

dax operation is unsupported with dm-snap, such that:
 a) After snapshot is taken, mount with dax option to a target device
    or a snapshot device fails.  They can be mounted without dax.
 b) After snapshot is taken to a dax-mounted target device, any writes 
    to the target device fails (EIO).

b) can be protected by changing lvcreate to fail when snapshot is
requested to a dax-mounted target device. 

- Patch 1 solves an error when lvremove is made to a snapshot device.
- Patch 2 solves an error when lvcreate --snapshot is made to a dax-
  capable device.
