[PATCH v4 3/3] dax: add a sysfs knob to control memmap_on_memory behavior

[Vishal Verma]

Add a sysfs knob for dax devices to control the memmap_on_memory setting
if the dax device were to be hotplugged as system memory.

The default memmap_on_memory setting for dax devices originating via
pmem or hmem is set to 'false' - i.e. no memmap_on_memory semantics, to
preserve legacy behavior. For dax devices via CXL, the default is on.
The sysfs control allows the administrator to override the above
defaults if needed.

+		device being hotplugged (memmap_on_memory=1) or if it will be
+		placed on regular memory (memmap_on_memory=0). This attribute
+		must be set before the device is handed over to the 'kmem'
+		driver (i.e.  hotplugged into system-ram). Additionally, this
+		depends on CONFIG_MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY, and a globally enabled
+		memmap_on_memory parameter for memory_hotplug. This is
+		typically set on the kernel command line -
+		memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory set to 'true' or 'force'."
