Toshi Kani ec215095ac ext4, dax: set ext4_dax_aops for dax files
commit cce6c9f7e6 upstream.

Sync syscall to DAX file needs to flush processor cache, but it
currently does not flush to existing DAX files.  This is because
'ext4_da_aops' is set to address_space_operations of existing DAX
files, instead of 'ext4_dax_aops', since S_DAX flag is set after
ext4_set_aops() in the open path.

  New file
  --------
  lookup_open
    ext4_create
      __ext4_new_inode
        ext4_set_inode_flags   // Set S_DAX flag
      ext4_set_aops            // Set aops to ext4_dax_aops

  Existing file
  -------------
  lookup_open
    ext4_lookup
      ext4_iget
        ext4_set_aops          // Set aops to ext4_da_aops
        ext4_set_inode_flags   // Set S_DAX flag

Change ext4_iget() to initialize i_flags before ext4_set_aops().
