[RFC 04/10] fs/dax: Don't track page mapping/index

[Alistair Popple <apopple@nvidia.com>]

The page->mapping and page->index fields are normally used by the
pagecache and rmap for looking up virtual mappings of pages. FS DAX
implements it's own kind of page cache and rmap look ups so these
fields are unnecessary. They are currently only used to detect
error/warning conditions which should never occur.

A future change will change the way shared mappings are detected by
doing normal page reference counting instead, so remove the
unnecessary checks.
