Struct page for ZONE_DEVICE private pages uses the page->mapping and

device private memory. This is so rmap_walk() can find the page when
migrating the ZONE_DEVICE private page back to system memory.
ZONE_DEVICE pmem backed fsdax pages also use the page->mapping and
page->index fields when files are mapped into a process address space.
Add comments to struct page and remove the unused "_zd_pad_1" field
to make this more clear.

Ralph, you marked some of thes patches as mm/hmm, but I feel it is
best if Andrew takes them through the normal -mm path.
They don't touch hmm.c or mmu notifiers so I don't forsee conflicts,
and I don't feel comfortable to review this code.
Regards,
Jason
Fine with me. I should have been clear in the cover letter which
tree to target.
