[PATCH 06/13] mm/memory: Add dax_insert_pfn

Currently to map a DAX page the DAX driver calls vmf_insert_pfn. This
creates a special devmap PTE entry for the pfn but does not take a
reference on the underlying struct page for the mapping. This is
because DAX page refcounts are treated specially, as indicated by the
presence of a devmap entry.

To allow DAX page refcounts to be managed the same as normal page
refcounts introduce dax_insert_pfn. This will take a reference on the
underlying page much the same as vmf_insert_page, except it also
permits upgrading an existing mapping to be writable if
requested/possible.
