This API adds the ability to manually pick a range within the region
device. Such routine allows for a admin to restore the mappings of a
device after kexec. This is specially useful for hmem dynamic devdax
which do not persistent ranges allocation through say a e.g. namespace
label storage area. It also allows an userspace application to pick
it's own ranges, should it want to avoid relying on kernel's policy.
