device-dax: add dis-contiguous resource support
Break the requirement that device-dax instances are physically contiguous. With this constraint removed it allows fragmented available capacity to be fully allocated. This capability is useful to mitigate the "noisy neighbor" problem with memory-side-cache management for virtual machines, or any other scenario where a platform address boundary also designates a performance boundary. For example a direct mapped memory side cache might rotate cache colors at 1GB boundaries. With dis-contiguous allocations a device-dax instance could be configured to contain only 1 cache color. It also satisfies Joao's use case (see link) for partitioning memory for exclusive guest access. It allows for a future potential mode where the host kernel need not allocate 'struct page' capacity up-front.
