For the device-dax case, it is possible that the inode can go away
underneath us. The rcu_read_lock() was there to prevent it from
being freed, and not (as I thought) to protect the tree. Bring back
the rcu_read_lock() protection. Also add a little kernel-doc; while
this function is not exported to modules, it is used from outside dax.c

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 Restructured Text 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.
