dax: check for data cache aliasing at runtime
Replace the following fs/Kconfig:FS_DAX dependency: depends on !(ARM || MIPS || SPARC) By a runtime check within alloc_dax(). This runtime check returns ERR_PTR(-EOPNOTSUPP) if the @ops parameter is non-NULL (which means the kernel is using an aliased mapping) on an architecture which has data cache aliasing. Change the return value from NULL to PTR_ERR(-EOPNOTSUPP) for CONFIG_DAX=n for consistency. This is done in preparation for using cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() in a following change which will properly support architectures which detect data cache aliasing at runtime.
