[PATCH 04/12] device-dax: Kill dax_kmem_res

[Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>]

Several related issues around this unneeded attribute:

- The dax_kmem_res property allows the kmem driver to stash the adjusted
  resource range that was used for the hotplug operation, but that can be
  recalculated from the original base range.

- kmem is using an open coded release_resource() + kfree() when an
  idiomatic release_mem_region() is sufficient.

- The driver managed resource need only manage the busy flag. Other flags
  are of no concern to the kmem driver. In fact if kmem inherits some
  memory range that add_memory() rejects that is a memory-hotplug-core
  policy that the driver is in no position to override.

- The implementation trusts that failed remove_memory() results in the
  entire resource range remaining pinned busy. The driver need not make
  that layering violation assumption and just maintain the busy state in
  its local resource.

- The "Hot-remove not yet implemented." comment is stale as of commit
  9f960da72b25 ("device-dax: "Hotremove" persistent memory that is used
  like normal RAM")
