Pull misc DAX updates from Vishal Verma:
 "DAX error handling for 4.7

   - Until now, dax has been disabled if media errors were found on any
     device.  This enables the use of DAX in the presence of these
     errors by making all sector-aligned zeroing go through the driver.

   - The driver (already) has the ability to clear errors on writes that
     are sent through the block layer using 'DSMs' defined in ACPI 6.1.

  Other misc changes:

   - When mounting DAX filesystems, check to make sure the partition is
     page aligned.  This is a requirement for DAX, and previously, we
     allowed such unaligned mounts to succeed, but subsequent
     reads/writes would fail.

   - Misc/cleanup fixes from Jan that remove unused code from DAX
     related to zeroing, writeback, and some size checks"
