Subject: [PATCH] libnvdimm, pfn: fix memmap reservation sizing
When configuring a pfn-device instance to allocate the memmap array it
needs to account for the fact that vmemmap_populate_hugepages()
allocates struct page blocks in HPAGE_SIZE chunks. We need to align the
reserved area size to 2MB otherwise arch_add_memory() runs out of memory
while establishing the memmap:
