S_DAX should only be enabled when the underlying block device supports dax. Cache the underlying support for DAX in the super block and modify ext4_should_use_dax() to check for device support prior to the over riding mount option. While we are at it change the function to ext4_should_enable_dax() as this better reflects the ask as well as matches xfs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
