device-dax: Add support for a dax override driver
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.
