This is done via: invalidate_mapping_pages() invalidate_exceptional_entry() dax_invalidate_mapping_entry() However, for page cache pages removed in invalidate_mapping_pages() there is an additional criteria which is that the page must not be mapped. This is noted in the comments above invalidate_mapping_pages() and is checked in invalidate_inode_page(). For DAX entries this means that we can can end up in a situation where a DAX exceptional entry, either a huge zero page or a regular DAX entry, could end up mapped but without an associated radix tree entry. This is inconsistent with the rest of the DAX code and with what happens in the page cache case. We aren't able to unmap the DAX exceptional entry because according to its comments invalidate_mapping_pages() isn't allowed to block, and unmap_mapping_range() takes a write lock on the mapping->i_mmap_rwsem. Since we essentially never have unmapped DAX entries to evict from the radix tree, just remove dax_invalidate_mapping_entry().
