They are indeed a hodge-podge. The problem is that the current IS_DAX() is broken. So I'd like to propose fixing IS_DAX() with IS_FSDAX() + IS_DEVDAX() for 4.16-rc4 and queue up these wider reworks you propose for the next merge window.
The only thing broken about IS_DAX are the code elimination games based on the CONFIG_* flags. Remove those and just add proper stubs for the dax routines and everything will be fine for now until we can kill that inode flag.
IS_FSDAX and IS_DEVDAX on the other hand are a giant mess that isn't helping anyone.
