mm: defer ZONE_DEVICE page initialization to the point where we init pgmap
The ZONE_DEVICE pages were being initialized in two locations. One was with the memory_hotplug lock held and another was outside of that lock. The problem with this is that it was nearly doubling the memory initialization time. Instead of doing this twice, once while holding a global lock and once without, I am opting to defer the initialization to the one outside of the lock. This allows us to avoid serializing the overhead for memory init and we can instead focus on per-node init times. One issue I encountered is that devm_memremap_pages and hmm_devmmem_pages_create were initializing only the pgmap field the same way. One wasn't initializing hmm_data, and the other was initializing it to a poison value. Since this is something that is exposed to the driver in the case of hmm I am opting for a third option and just initializing hmm_data to 0 since this is going to be exposed to unknown third party drivers.
