MAP_SYNC is a nop for device-dax. Allow MAP_SYNC to succeed on device-dax to eliminate special casing between device-dax and fs-dax as to when the flag can be specified. Device-dax users already implicitly assume that they do not need to call fsync(), and this enables them to explicitly check for this capability.
