    Merge tag 'vfs-5.8-merge-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux · 7cf035cc
    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull DAX updates part three from Darrick Wong:
     "Now that the xfs changes have landed, this third piece changes the
      FS_XFLAG_DAX ioctl code in xfs to request that the inode be reloaded
      after the last program closes the file, if doing so would make a S_DAX
      change happen. The goal here is to make dax access mode switching
      quicker when possible.
    
      Summary:
    
       - Teach XFS to ask the VFS to drop an inode if the administrator
         changes the FS_XFLAG_DAX inode flag such that the S_DAX state would
         change. This can result in files changing access modes without
         requiring an unmount cycle"
