Aneesh Kumar K.V 11cf9d863d fs/dax: Deposit pagetable even when installing zero page 
Architectures like ppc64 use the deposited page table to store hardware
page table slot information. Make sure we deposit a page table when
using zero page at the pmd level for hash.

Without this we hit

README 

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.
