In support of allowing device-mapper to compile out idle/dead code when there are no dax providers in the system, introduce the DAX_DRIVER symbol. This is selected by all leaf drivers that device-mapper might be layered on top. This allows device-mapper to 'select DAX', i.e. upgrade it from DAX=m to DAX=y, when a provider is present.
