The current IS_DAX() helper that checks if a file is in DAX mode serves two purposes. It is a control flow branch condition for DAX vs non-DAX paths and it is a mechanism to perform dead code elimination. The dead code elimination is required in the CONFIG_FS_DAX=n case since there are symbols in fs/dax.c that will be elided. While the dead code elimination can be addressed with nop stubs for the fs/dax.c symbols that does not address the need for a DAX control flow helper where fs/dax.c symbols are not involved.
Moreover, the control flow changes, in some cases, need to be cognizant of whether the DAX file is a typical file or a Device-DAX special file. Introduce IS_DEVDAX() and IS_FSDAX() to simultaneously address the file-type control flow and dead-code elimination use cases. IS_DAX() will be deleted after all sites are converted to use the file-type specific helper.
Note, this change is also a pre-requisite for fixing the definition of the S_DAX inode flag in the CONFIG_FS_DAX=n + CONFIG_DEV_DAX=y case. The flag needs to be defined, non-zero, if either DAX facility is enabled.
