Dan Williams 7a67832c7e libnvdimm, e820: make CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY a tristate option
We currently register a platform device for e820 type-12 memory and
register a nvdimm bus beneath it.  Registering the platform device
triggers the device-core machinery to probe for a driver, but that
search currently comes up empty.  Building the nvdimm-bus registration
into the e820_pmem platform device registration in this way forces
libnvdimm to be built-in.  Instead, convert the built-in portion of
CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY to simply register a platform device and move the
rest of the logic to the driver for e820_pmem, for the following
reasons:

1/ Letting e820_pmem support be a module allows building and testing
   libnvdimm.ko changes without rebooting

2/ All the normal policy around modules can be applied to e820_pmem
   (unbind to disable and/or blacklisting the module from loading by
   default)

3/ Moving the driver to a generic location and converting it to scan
   "iomem_resource" rather than "e820.map" means any other architecture can
   take advantage of this simple nvdimm resource discovery mechanism by
   registering a resource named "Persistent Memory (legacy)"

/*
* Legacy E820 BIOS limits us to 128 (E820MAX) nodes due to the
* constrained space in the zeropage. If we have more nodes than
* that, and if we've booted off EFI firmware, then the EFI tables
* passed us from the EFI firmware can list more nodes. Size our
* internal memory map tables to have room for these additional
* nodes, based on up to three entries per node for which the
* kernel was built: MAX_NUMNODES == (1 << CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT),
* plus E820MAX, allowing space for the possible duplicate E820
* entries that might need room in the same arrays, prior to the
* call to sanitize_e820_map() to remove duplicates. The allowance
* of three memory map entries per node is "enough" entries for
* the initial hardware platform motivating this mechanism to make
* use of additional EFI map entries. Future platforms may want
* to allow more than three entries per node or otherwise refine
* this size.
