device-dax: Add support for a dax override driver
commit d200781ef237a354d918ceff5cee350d88a93d42 upstream Introduce the 'new_id' concept for enabling a custom device-driver attach policy for dax-bus drivers. The intended use is to have a mechanism for hot-plugging device-dax ranges into the page allocator on-demand. With this in place the default policy of using device-dax for performance differentiated memory can be overridden by user-space policy that can arrange for the memory range to be managed as 'System RAM' with user-defined NUMA and other performance attributes.
