dax: add dax_zero_page_range

Browse source 
This new function allows us to support hole-punch for DAX files by zeroing
a partial page, as opposed to the dax_truncate_page() function which can
only truncate to the end of the page.  Reimplement dax_truncate_page() to
call dax_zero_page_range().

@ -62,6 +62,7 @@ Filesystem support consists of
for fault and page_mkwrite (which should probably call dax_fault() and
dax_mkwrite(), passing the appropriate get_block() callback)
- calling dax_truncate_page() instead of block_truncate_page() for DAX files
- calling dax_zero_page_range() instead of zero_user() for DAX files
- ensuring that there is sufficient locking between reads, writes,
truncates and page faults
