[PATCH] erofs: correct FSDAX detection

Gao Xiang hsiangkao at linux.alibaba.com
Mon Nov 17 22:57:29 AEDT 2025


The detection of the primary device is skipped incorrectly
if the multiple or flattened feature is enabled.

It also fixes the FSDAX misdetection for non-block extra blobs.

Fixes: c6993c4cb918 ("erofs: Fallback to normal access if DAX is not supported on extra device")
