/dev/dax: fix Kconfig dependency build breakage
The function dax_pmem_probe() in drivers/dax/pmem.c is compiled under the
CONFIG_DEV_DAX_PMEM tri-state config option. This config option currently
only depends on CONFIG_NVDIMM_DAX, a bool, which means that the following
configuration is possible:
CONFIG_LIBNVDIMM=m
...
CONFIG_NVDIMM_DAX=y
CONFIG_DEV_DAX=y
CONFIG_DEV_DAX_PMEM=y
With this config LIBNVDIMM is compiled as a module with NVDIMM_DAX=y just
meaning that we will compile drivers/nvdimm/dax_devs.c into that module.
However, dax_pmem_probe() depends on several symbols defined in
drivers/nvdimm/dax_devs.c, which results in the following build errors:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `dax_pmem_probe':
linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:70: undefined reference to `to_nd_dax'
linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:74: undefined reference to
`nvdimm_namespace_common_probe'
linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:80: undefined reference to `devm_nsio_enable'
linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:81: undefined reference to `nvdimm_setup_pfn'
linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:84: undefined reference to `devm_nsio_disable'
linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:122: undefined reference to `to_nd_region'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `dax_pmem_init':
linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:147: undefined reference to `__nd_driver_register'
Fix this by making NVDIMM_DAX a tristate. DEV_DAX_PMEM depends on
NVDIMM_DAX which depends on LIBNVDIMM. Since they are all now tristates,
if LIBNVDIMM is built as a kernel module DEV_DAX_PMEM will be as well.
This prevents dax_devs.c from being built as a built-in while its
dependencies are in the libnvdimm.ko module.
