[PATCH v2 3/5] xfs: call dax_get_unmapped_area() for DAX pmd mappings

To support DAX pmd mappings with unmodified applications,
filesystems need to align an mmap address by the pmd size.

Call dax_get_unmapped_area() from f_op->get_unmapped_area.

Note, there is no change in behavior for a non-DAX file.
