The nd_pmem_notify() routine is called whenever an ARS
(address-range-scrub) completes to communicate results to the
per-namespace badblocks instances.

When the namespace is in btt mode we crash because we do not allocate a
struct pmem_device instance in that case. Resulting in the following
crash signature:

 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000030
 IP: nd_pmem_notify+0x30/0xf0 [nd_pmem]
 Call Trace:
  nd_device_notify+0x40/0x50
  child_notify+0x10/0x20
  device_for_each_child+0x50/0x90
  nd_region_notify+0x20/0x30
  nd_device_notify+0x40/0x50
  nvdimm_region_notify+0x27/0x30
  acpi_nfit_scrub+0x341/0x590 [nfit]
  process_one_work+0x197/0x450
  worker_thread+0x4e/0x4a0
  kthread+0x109/0x140

Given that we don't even populate the btt badblocks instance, just
return early and skip the device to region lookup.

This is a simpler version of the original fix by Toshi [1].
