Hi Darrick,

With the change,I didn't find any failure when running generic/470 in 
loops.
--------------------------------------------------------------
[root@fedora35 xfstests-dev]# ./check generic/470
FSTYP         -- xfs (non-debug)
PLATFORM      -- Linux/x86_64 fedora35 6.1.0-rc1+ #37 SMP 
PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Oct 21 19:04:57 CST 2022
MKFS_OPTIONS  -- -f /dev/pmem0
MOUNT_OPTIONS -- -o context=system_u:object_r:root_t:s0 /dev/pmem0 
/mnt/scratch

generic/470 6s
Ran: generic/470
Passed all 1 tests
--------------------------------------------------------------
Both dm-log-writes and PMEM support DAX so it's fine to verify 
mmap(MAP_SYNC) with the dm-log-writes device on top of PMEM.

Did I miss something? Why do you think there is a fundamental problem here?

Best Regards,
Xiao Yang
