TBH I preferred your previous iteration on this, which only set the DAX
bit in the attributes_mask if the underlying storage was pmem and the
blocksize was correct, etc. since it made it easier to distinguish
between a filesystem where you /could/ have DAX (but it wasn't currently
enabled) and a filesystem where it just isn't possible.

That might be enough to satisfy any critics who want to be able to
detect DAX support from an installer program.
