Sorry for the thread necromancy, but now that the merge window is
past....

Today I test ext4's dax support, without having any $$$ DAX hardware,
by using the kernel command line "memmap=4G!9G:memmap=9G!14G" which
reserves memory so that creates two pmem device and then I run
xfstests with DAX enabled using qemu or using a Google Compute Engine
VM, using TEST_DEV=/dev/pmem0 and SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/pmem1.

If you can give me a recipe for what kernel configs I should enable,
and what magic kernel command line arguments to use, then I'd be able
to test your patch set with ext4.

Cheers,
