Sure, that's trivially easy to handle in the XFS code once the
callouts are in place.
But, quite frankly, we can enforce rmap to be enabled
enabled because nobody is using a reflink enabled FS w/ DAX right
now. Everyone will have to mkfs their filesystems anyway to enable
reflink+dax, so we simply don't allow reflink+dax to be enabled
unless rmap is also enabled. Simple, easy, trivial.
Cheers,
Dave.
