Merge branch 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams: - A collection of crash and deadlock fixes for DAX that are also tagged for -stable. We will look to re-enable DAX pmd mappings in 4.5, but for now 4.4 and -stable should disable it by default. - A fixup to ext2 and ext4 to mirror the same warning emitted by XFS when mounting with "-o dax" * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: block: protect rw_page against device teardown mm, dax: fix DAX deadlocks (COW fault) dax: disable pmd mappings ext2, ext4: warn when mounting with dax enabled
