FYI, I've been wondering for a while if we could just kill off these
methods entirely. Basically the driver interaction consists of two
parts:
a) wether to use the flushcache/mcsafe variants of the generic helpers
b) actually doing remapping for device mapper
to me it seems like we should handle a) with flags in dax_operations,
and only have a remap callback for device mapper. That way we'd avoid
the indirect calls for the native case, and also avoid tons of
boilerplate code. "futher decouple DAX from block devices" series
already massages the device mapper into a form suitable for such
callbacks.
