Logan audited the devm_memremap_pages() shutdown path and noticed that
it was possible to proceed to arch_remove_memory() before all
potential page references have been reaped.

Introduce a new ->cleanup() callback to do the work of waiting for any
straggling page references and then perform the percpu_ref_exit() in
devm_memremap_pages_release() context.

For p2pdma this involves some deeper reworks to reference count
resources on a per-instance basis rather than a per pci-device basis. A
modified genalloc api is introduced to convey a driver-private pointer
through gen_pool_{alloc,free}() interfaces. Also, a
devm_memunmap_pages() api is introduced since p2pdma does not
auto-release resources on a setup failure.

The dax and pmem changes pass the nvdimm unit tests, but the hmm and
p2pdma changes are compile-tested only.

Thoughts on the api changes?

I'm targeting to land this through Andrew's tree. 0day has chewed on
this for a day and reported no issues so far.
