Introduce a PAGE_MAPPING_DAX_COW flag to support association with CoW file
mappings. In this case, the dax-RMAP already takes the responsibility
to look up for shared files by given dax page. The page->mapping is no
longer to used for rmap but for marking that this dax page is shared.
And to make sure disassociation works fine, we use page->index as
refcount, and clear page->mapping to the initial state when page->index
is decreased to 0.
With the help of this new flag, it is able to distinguish normal case
and CoW case, and keep the warning in normal case.

Where is the caller that passes 'true'? Also when that caller arrives
introduce a separate dax_associate_cow_entry() as that's easier to
read than dax_associate_entry(..., true) in case someone does not
remember what that boolean flag means.
This flag is
