In preparation for the CXL region driver to take over the responsibility
of registering device-dax instances for CXL regions, move the
registration of "hmem" devices to dax_hmem.ko.
Previously the builtin component of this enabling
(drivers/dax/hmem/device.o) would register platform devices for each
address range and trigger the dax_hmem.ko module to load and attach
device-dax instances to those devices. Now, the ranges are collected
from the HMAT and EFI memory map walking, but the device creation is
deferred. A new "hmem_platform" device is created which triggers
dax_hmem.ko to load and register the platform devices.

In preparation for hmem platform devices to be unregistered, stop using
platform_device_add_resources() to convey the address range. The
platform_device_add_resources() API causes an existing "Soft Reserved"
iomem resource to be re-parented under an inserted platform device
resource. When that platform device is deleted it removes the platform
device resource and all children.
Instead, it is sufficient to convey just the address range and let
request_mem_region() insert resources to indicate the devices active in
the range. This allows the "Soft Reserved" resource to be re-enumerated
upon the next probe event.

So called "soft-reserved" memory is an EFI conventional memory range
with the EFI_MEMORY_SP attribute set. That attribute indicates that the
memory is not part of the platform general purpose memory pool and may
want some consideration from the system administrator about whether to
keep that memory set aside for dedicated access through device-dax (map
a device file), or assigned to the page allocator as another general
purpose memory node target.
Absent an ACPI HMAT table the default device-dax registration creates
coarse grained devices that are delineated by EFI Memory Map entries.
With the HMAT the devices are delineated by the finer grained ranges
associated with the proximity domain of the memory target. I.e. the HMAT
describes the properties of performance differentiated memory and each
unique performance description results in a unique target proximity
domain where each memory proximity domain has an associated SRAT entry
that delineates the address range.
The intent was that SRAT-defined device-dax instances are registered
first. Then any left-over address range with the EFI_MEMORY_SP
attribute, but not covered by the SRAT, would have a coarse grained
device-dax instance established. However, the scheme to detect what
ranges are left to be assigned to a device was buggy and resulted in
multiple overlapping device-dax instances. Fix this by using explicit
tracking for which ranges have been handled.
Now, this new approach may leave memory stranded in the presence of
broken platform firmware that fails to fully describe all EFI_MEMORY_SP
ranges in the HMAT. That requires a deeper fix if it becomes a problem
in practice.

Pull nvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"Some small cleanups and fixes in and around the nvdimm subsystem. The
most significant change is a regression fix for nvdimm namespace
(volume) creation when the namespace size is smaller than 2MB/
Summary:
- Fix nvdimm namespace creation on platforms that do not publish
associated 'DIMM' metadata for a persistent memory region.
- Miscellaneous fixes and cleanups"

libnvdimm/region: Allow setting align attribute on regions without mappings

The platform device is not released when platform_device_add_data()
fails. And platform_device_put() perfom one more pointer check than
put_device() to check for errors in the 'pdev' pointer.
Use platform_device_put() to release platform device in
platform_device_add()/platform_device_add_data()/
platform_device_add_resources() error case.

The "hmem" platform-devices that are created to represent the
platform-advertised "Soft Reserved" memory ranges end up inserting a
resource that causes the iomem_resource tree to look like this:
340000000-43fffffff : hmem.0
340000000-43fffffff : Soft Reserved
340000000-43fffffff : dax0.0
This is because insert_resource() reparents ranges when they completely
intersect an existing range.
This matters because code that uses region_intersects() to scan for a
given IORES_DESC will only check that top-level 'hmem.0' resource and
not the 'Soft Reserved' descendant.
So, to support EINJ (via einj_error_inject()) to inject errors into
memory hosted by a dax-device, be sure to describe the memory as
IORES_DESC_SOFT_RESERVED. This is a follow-on to:
commit b13a3e5fd4 ("ACPI: APEI: Fix _EINJ vs EFI_MEMORY_SP")
...that fixed EINJ support for "Soft Reserved" ranges in the first
instance.
