nvdimm/blk: don't allocate unused major device number
When alloc_disk(0) is used ->major is completely ignored, all devices are allocated with a "major" of BLOCK_EXT_MAJOR. So don't allocate nd_blk_major Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
