Hi Linus, please pull from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm libnvdimm-fixes
...to receive a fix for an oversight spotted by Sasha.
We expanded the device-dax fs type in 4.12 to be a generic provider of a struct dax_device with an embedded inode. However, Sasha found some basic negative testing was not run to verify that this fs cleanly handles being mounted directly. Note that the fresh rebase was done to remove an unnecessary Cc: <stable> tag, but this commit otherwise had a build success notification from the 0day robot.

commit b9d39d17e4819ca2e69ad1f14acaad12240a1de5 Author: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Date: Fri Jun 9 08:50:49 2017 -0700
device-dax: fix 'dax' device filesystem inode destruction crash The inode destruction path for the 'dax' device filesystem incorrectly assumes that the inode was initialized through 'alloc_dax()'. However, if someone attempts to directly mount the dax filesystem with 'mount -t dax dax mnt' that will bypass 'alloc_dax()' and the following failure signatures may occur as a result: kill_dax() must be called before final iput() WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1188 at drivers/dax/super.c:243 dax_destroy_inode+0x48/0x50 RIP: 0010:dax_destroy_inode+0x48/0x50 Call Trace: destroy_inode+0x3b/0x60 evict+0x139/0x1c0 iput+0x1f9/0x2d0 dentry_unlink_inode+0xc3/0x160 __dentry_kill+0xcf/0x180 ? dput+0x37/0x3b0 dput+0x3a3/0x3b0 do_one_tree+0x36/0x40 shrink_dcache_for_umount+0x2d/0x90 generic_shutdown_super+0x1f/0x120 kill_anon_super+0x12/0x20 deactivate_locked_super+0x43/0x70 deactivate_super+0x4e/0x60 general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC RIP: 0010:kfree+0x6d/0x290 Call Trace: <IRQ> dax_i_callback+0x22/0x60 ? dax_destroy_inode+0x50/0x50 rcu_process_callbacks+0x298/0x740 ida_remove called for id=0 which is not allocated.
