Memory that has been tagged EFI_SPECIAL_PURPOSE, and has performance
properties described by the ACPI HMAT is expected to have an application
specific consumer.
Those consumers may want 100% of the memory capacity to be reserved from
any usage by the kernel. By default, with this enabling, a platform
device is created to represent this differentiated resource.
A follow on change arranges for device-dax to claim these devices by
default and provide an mmap interface for the target application.
However, if the administrator prefers that some or all of the special
purpose memory is made available to the core-mm the device-dax hotplug
facility can be used to online the memory with its own numa node.
