[PATCH v7 2/8] dax: Introduce holder for dax_device

From: Shiyang Ruan
Date: Fri Sep 24 2021 - 09:20:01 EST


To easily track filesystem from a pmem device, we introduce a holder for
dax_device structure, and also its operation. This holder is used to
remember who is using this dax_device:
- When it is the backend of a filesystem, the holder will be the
superblock of this filesystem.
- When this pmem device is one of the targets in a mapped device, the
holder will be this mapped device. In this case, the mapped device
has its own dax_device and it will follow the first rule. So that we
can finally track to the filesystem we needed.

The holder and holder_ops will be set when filesystem is being mounted,
or an target device is being activated.
