A few trivial comments form a first read to get my head around this.
Yeah, it is only an RFC, but who doesn't like tidy code? :)

Smells like kernel doc but fairly sure it needs a short description.
Have you sanity checked for warnings when running scripts/kerneldoc on it?

Trivial but lines too long. Keep under 80 chars unless there is a strong
readability arguement for not doing so.

Not familiar with this area: what does exclusive mean here?

Why not return < 0 and use somewhat useful return values?

Match local style for indents - it's a bit inconsistent but probably...

You dereferenced dax_dev on the line above so check is too late or
unnecessary

Perhaps nicer to use a pr_fmt() deal with the func name if you need it.
or make it pr_debug and let dynamic debug control formatting if anyone
wants the function name.

line wrap < 80 chars
