dax: Allow DAX code to replace exceptional entries
Currently we forbid page_cache_tree_insert() to replace exceptional radix tree entries for DAX inodes. However to make DAX faults race free we will lock radix tree entries and when hole is created, we need to replace such locked radix tree entry with a hole page. So modify page_cache_tree_insert() to allow that.
