Curretly, the memory region of backed memory is directly mapped to
guest's address space, however, it is not true for nvdimm device
This patch let dimm device realize this fact and use
DIMMDeviceClass->get_memory_region method to get the mapped memory
region
Current code did not check the return value of get_memory_region as it
assumed the backend memory of pc-dimm is always properly initialized,
we make get_memory_region internally catch the case if something is
wrong
