From 069c77bc9eaee70fa9ecbd942372b1693b8cdeb0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Wed, 11 May 2016 11:58:51 +0200 Subject: dax: Remove zeroing from dax_io() All the filesystems are now zeroing blocks themselves for DAX IO to avoid races between dax_io() and dax_fault(). Remove the zeroing code from dax_io() and add warning to catch the case when somebody unexpectedly returns new or unwritten buffer.
