In general this looks mostly OK.. but it seems a bit weird to on the one
hand: test if DAXDEV_WRITE_CACHE is set on underlying device.  And on
the other: say it is a write cache because it is "flush_capable".  Kind
of blurring things a bit.

Why not s/device_dax_flush_capable/device_dax_write_cache_enabled/ ?
