device-dax: Add a 'resource' attribute
commit 40cdc60ac16a42eb4e013f84d0e7aa1d6ee060d3 upstream device-dax based devices were missing a 'resource' attribute to indicate the physical address range contributed by the device in question. This information is desirable to userspace tooling that may want to use the dax device as system-ram, and wants to selectively hotplug and online the memory blocks associated with a given device. Without this, the tooling would have to parse /proc/iomem for the memory ranges contributed by dax devices, which can be a workaround, but it is far easier to provide this information in the sysfs hierarchy.
