Subject: [PATCH 1/2] uapi: fix statx attribute value overlap for DAX & MOUNT_ROOT
Date: Tue, 1 Dec 2020 10:57:11 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7027520f-7c79-087e-1d00-743bdefa1a1e@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <e388f379-cd11-a5d2-db82-aa1aa518a582@redhat.com>

STATX_ATTR_MOUNT_ROOT and STATX_ATTR_DAX got merged with the same value,
so one of them needs fixing. Move STATX_ATTR_DAX.

While we're in here, clarify the value-matching scheme for some of the
attributes, and explain why the value for DAX does not match.
