[PATCH v2 3/3] dax/kmem: allow kmem to add memory with memmap_on_memory

Vishal Verma
2023-07-20T07:14:43Z

Large amounts of memory managed by the kmem driver may come in via CXL,
and it is often desirable to have the memmap for this memory on the new
memory itself.

Enroll kmem-managed memory for memmap_on_memory semantics as a default
if other requirements for it are met. Add a sysfs override under the dax
device to opt out of this behavior.
