Vivek Goyal c2d0ad00d9 virtiofs: implement dax read/write operations
This patch implements basic DAX support. mmap() is not implemented
yet and will come in later patches. This patch looks into implemeting
read/write.

We make use of interval tree to keep track of per inode dax mappings.

Do not use dax for file extending writes, instead just send WRITE message
to daemon (like we do for direct I/O path). This will keep write and
i_size change atomic w.r.t crash.

config FUSE_FS
tristate "FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) support"
select FS_POSIX_ACL
help
With FUSE it is possible to implement a fully functional filesystem
in a userspace program.
There's also a companion library: libfuse2. This library is available
from the FUSE homepage:
<https://github.com/libfuse/>
although chances are your distribution already has that library
installed if you've installed the "fuse" package itself.
See <file:Documentation/filesystems/fuse.rst> for more information.
See <file:Documentation/Changes> for needed library/utility version.
If you want to develop a userspace FS, or if you want to use
a filesystem based on FUSE, answer Y or M.
config CUSE
tristate "Character device in Userspace support"

help
This FUSE extension allows character devices to be
implemented in userspace.
If you want to develop or use a userspace character device
based on CUSE, answer Y or M.
config VIRTIO_FS
tristate "Virtio Filesystem"
depends on FUSE_FS
select VIRTIO
help
The Virtio Filesystem allows guests to mount file systems from the
host.
If you want to share files between guests or with the host, answer Y
or M.
config FUSE_DAX
bool "Virtio Filesystem Direct Host Memory Access support"
default y
select INTERVAL_TREE

help
This allows bypassing guest page cache and allows mapping host page
cache directly in guest address space.
If you want to allow mounting a Virtio Filesystem with the "dax"
option, answer Y.
