Jan Kara d5a2693f93 ext2: Deprecate DAX
Since PMEM didn't quite lift off, DAX isn't as widely used as we
originally hoped. Thus it doesn't seem warranted to support
implementation of DAX in ext2 driver when the same filesystem can be
accessed through ext4 driver as a "simple implementation". Just
deprecate DAX support in ext2 targetting completely dropping the code at
the end of 2025.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
