Currently device_supports_dax() just checks to see if the QUEUE_FLAG_DAX flag is set on the device's request queue to decide whether or not the device supports filesystem DAX. Really we should be using bdev_dax_supported() like filesystems do at mount time. This performs other tests like checking to make sure the dax_direct_access() path works.
We also explicitly clear QUEUE_FLAG_DAX on the DM device's request queue if any of the underlying devices do not support DAX. This makes the handling of QUEUE_FLAG_DAX consistent with the setting/clearing of most other flags in dm_table_set_restrictions().
Now that bdev_dax_supported() explicitly checks for QUEUE_FLAG_DAX, this will ensure that filesystems built upon DM devices will only be able to mount with DAX if all underlying devices also support DAX.
