[PATCH 43/47] xfs: disable per-inode DAX flag

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Date: 2017-09-17 21:07:36
Also in: linux-xfs
Subsystem: filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest, xfs filesystem · Maintainers: Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds, Carlos Maiolino

commit 742d84290739ae908f1b61b7d17ea382c8c0073a upstream.

Currently flag switching can be used to easily crash the kernel.  Disable
the per-inode DAX flag until that is sorted out.
