dax/hmem: Move hmem device registration to dax_hmem.ko

Browse source

In preparation for the CXL region driver to take over the responsibility
of registering device-dax instances for CXL regions, move the
registration of "hmem" devices to dax_hmem.ko.

Previously the builtin component of this enabling
(drivers/dax/hmem/device.o) would register platform devices for each
address range and trigger the dax_hmem.ko module to load and attach
device-dax instances to those devices. Now, the ranges are collected
from the HMAT and EFI memory map walking, but the device creation is
deferred. A new "hmem_platform" device is created which triggers
dax_hmem.ko to load and register the platform devices.
