DAX wants different semantics from any currently-existing ext4 get_block callback. Unlike ext4_get_block_write(), it needs to honour the 'create' flag, and unlike ext4_get_block(), it needs to be able to return unwritten extents. So introduce a new ext4_get_block_dax() which has those semantics. We could also change ext4_get_block_write() to honour the 'create' flag, but that might have consequences on other users that I do not currently understand.
