dax: skip read lock assertion for read-only filesystems
The commit 168316db3583("dax: assert that i_rwsem is held
exclusive for writes") added lock assertions to ensure proper
locking in DAX operations. However, these assertions trigger
false-positive lockdep warnings since read lock is unnecessary
on read-only filesystems(e.g., erofs).

This patch skips the read lock assertion for read-only filesystems,
eliminating the spurious warnings while maintaining the integrity
checks for writable filesystems.

Fixes: 168316db35 ("dax: assert that i_rwsem is held exclusive for writes")

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.
