Subject: device-dax/kmem: replace release_resource() with release_mem_region()

Towards removing the mode specific @dax_kmem_res attribute from the
generic 'struct dev_dax', and preparing for multi-range support, change
the kmem driver to use the idiomatic release_mem_region() to pair with the
initial request_mem_region().  This also eliminates the need to open code
the release of the resource allocated by request_mem_region().

As there are no more dax_kmem_res users, delete this struct member.
