Subject: [PATCH 03/10] fs: Introduce ->corrupted_range() for superblock

Memory failure occurs in fsdax mode will finally be handled in
filesystem. We introduce this interface to find out files or metadata
affected by the corrupted range, and try to recover the corrupted data
if possiable.

This adds an overly long line. But more importantly it must work on
the dax device and not the block device. I'd also structure the callback
so that it is called on the dax device only, with the file system storing
the super block in a private data member.
