Now, we map these dev_dax or fs_dax pages to kvm for DIMM/NVDIMM backend, since these pages are reserved. the check of kvm_is_reserved_pfn() misconceives those pages as MMIO. Therefor, we introduce 2 page map types, MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX/MEMORY_DEVICE_DEV_DAX, to indentify these pages are from NVDIMM pmem. and let kvm treat these as normal pages. Without this patch, Many operations will be missed due to this mistreatment to pmem pages. For example, a page may not have chance to be unpinned for KVM guest(in kvm_release_pfn_clean); not able to be marked as dirty/accessed(in kvm_set_pfn_dirty/accessed) etc. V1: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/4/91 V2: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/10/135 V3: [PATCH V3 1/4] Needs Comments.
