Subject: [PATCH] ext4: avoid race conditions when remounting with options that
change dax
Trying to change dax mount options when remounting could allow mount
options to be enabled for a small amount of time, and then the mount
option change would be reverted.
In the case of "mount -o remount,dax", this can cause a race where
files would temporarily treated as DAX --- and then not.

We didn't have the conversion of the DAX mount option to a tri-state back in
5.7 and older:
9cb20f94afcd ("fs/ext4: Make DAX mount option a tri-state")
a8ab6d3885ef ("fs/ext4: Update ext4_should_use_dax()")
fc626fe322f1 ("fs/ext4: Change EXT4_MOUNT_DAX to EXT4_MOUNT_DAX_ALWAYS")
I think that something like this (untested) patch should work:
