drivers/base/devres: introduce devm_release_action()

Patch series "mm/devm_memremap_pages: Fix page release race", v2.

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, and the p2pdma
changes should now pass testing with the pci_p2pdma_release() fix.
Jrme, how does this look for HMM?

This patch (of 6):

The devm_add_action() facility allows a resource allocation routine to
add custom devm semantics.  One such user is devm_memremap_pages().

There is now a need to manually trigger
devm_memremap_pages_release().  Introduce devm_release_action() so the
release action can be triggered via a new devm_memunmap_pages() api in a
follow-on change.
