Merge branch 'for-5.15/fsdax-cleanups' into for-5.15/libnvdimm

Include Christoph's rework of the dax_supported() helpers in the v5.15
libnvdimm update. This supports the ongoing dax-reflink enabling effort.

+	  For a DAX device to support file system access it needs to have
+	  struct pages.  For the nfit based NVDIMMs this can be enabled
+	  using the ndctl utility:
+
+		# ndctl create-namespace --force --reconfig=namespace0.0 \
+			--mode=fsdax --map=mem
+

+
+          For ndctl to work CONFIG_DEV_DAX needs to be enabled as well. For most

+	  per-inode using a mount option as well.  See the file documentation in

 	  or if unsure, say N.  Saying Y will increase the size of the kernel
