mm, dax: fix DAX deadlocks (COW fault)
DAX handling of COW faults has wrong locking sequence:
dax_fault does i_mmap_lock_read
do_cow_fault does i_mmap_unlock_write
Ross's commit[1] missed a fix[2] that Kirill added to Matthew's
commit[3].
Original COW locking logic was introduced by Matthew here[4].
This should be applied to v4.3 as well.

[2] 52a2b53ffde6 mm, dax: use i_mmap_unlock_write() in do_cow_fault()
[3] 843172978bb9 dax: fix race between simultaneous faults
[4] 2e4cdab0584f mm: allow page fault handlers to perform the COW
