All drivers return 0 in their remove callback and the driver core ignores
the return value of nvdimm_bus_remove() anyhow. So simplify by changing
the driver remove callback to return void and return 0 unconditionally
to the upper layer.

The 'struct resource' in 'struct dev_pagemap' is only used for holding
resource span information. The other fields, 'name', 'flags', 'desc',
'parent', 'sibling', and 'child' are all unused wasted space.
This is in preparation for introducing a multi-range extension of
devm_memremap_pages().
The bulk of this change is unwinding all the places internal to libnvdimm
that used 'struct resource' unnecessarily, and replacing instances of
'struct dev_pagemap'.res with 'struct dev_pagemap'.range.
P2PDMA had a minor usage of the resource flags field, but only to report
failures with "%pR". That is replaced with an open coded print of the
range.

In preparation for introducing seed devices the dax-bus core needs to be
able to intercept ->probe() and ->remove() operations. Towards that end
arrange for the bus and drivers to switch from raw 'struct device' driver
operations to 'struct dev_dax' typed operations.

In preparation for a facility that enables dax regions to be sub-divided,
introduce infrastructure to track and allocate region capacity.
The new dax_region/available_size attribute is only enabled for volatile
hmem devices, not pmem devices that are defined by nvdimm namespace
boundaries. This is per Jeff's feedback the last time dynamic device-dax
capacity allocation support was discussed.

The passed in dev_pagemap is only required in the pmem case as the
libnvdimm core may have reserved a vmem_altmap for dev_memremap_pages() to
place the memmap in pmem directly. In the hmem case there is no agent
reserving an altmap so it can all be handled by a core internal default.
Pass the resource range via a new @range property of 'struct
dev_dax_data'.

The nvdimm core currently maps the full namespace to an ioremap range
while probing the namespace mode. This can result in probe failures on
architectures that have limited ioremap space.
For example, with a large btt namespace that consumes most of I/O remap
range, depending on the sequence of namespace initialization, the user
can find a pfn namespace initialization failure due to unavailable I/O
remap space which nvdimm core uses for temporary mapping.
nvdimm core can avoid this failure by only mapping the reserved info
block area to check for pfn superblock type and map the full namespace
resource only before using the namespace.
Given that personalities like BTT can be layered on top of any namespace
type create a generic form of devm_nsio_enable (devm_namespace_enable)
and use it inside the per-personality attach routines. Now
devm_namespace_enable() is always paired with disable unless the mapping
is going to be used for long term runtime access.

Persistent memory, as described by the ACPI NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware
Interface Table), is the first known instance of a memory range
described by a unique "target" proximity domain. Where "initiator" and
"target" proximity domains is an approach that the ACPI HMAT
(Heterogeneous Memory Attributes Table) uses to described the unique
performance properties of a memory range relative to a given initiator
(e.g. CPU or DMA device).
Currently the numa-node for a /dev/pmemX block-device or /dev/daxX.Y
char-device follows the traditional notion of 'numa-node' where the
attribute conveys the closest online numa-node. That numa-node attribute
is useful for cpu-binding and memory-binding processes *near* the
device. However, when the memory range backing a 'pmem', or 'dax' device
is onlined (memory hot-add) the memory-only-numa-node representing that
address needs to be differentiated from the set of online nodes. In
other words, the numa-node association of the device depends on whether
you can bind processes *near* the cpu-numa-node in the offline
device-case, or bind process *on* the memory-range directly after the
backing address range is onlined.
Allow for the case that platform firmware describes persistent memory
with a unique proximity domain, i.e. when it is distinct from the
proximity of DRAM and CPUs that are on the same socket. Plumb the Linux
numa-node translation of that proximity through the libnvdimm region
device to namespaces that are in device-dax mode. With this in place the
proposed kmem driver [1] can optionally discover a unique numa-node
number for the address range as it transitions the memory from an
offline state managed by a device-driver to an online memory range
managed by the core-mm.

(userspace component that depends on the /sys/class/dax hierarchy),
provide a default / legacy dax_pmem_compat driver. The dax_pmem_compat
driver implements the original /sys/class/dax sysfs layout rather than
/sys/bus/dax. When userspace is upgraded it can blacklist this module
and switch to the dax_pmem driver going forward.
