dax/hmem: Request cxl_acpi and cxl_pci before walking Soft Reserved ranges
Ensure cxl_acpi has published CXL Window resources before HMEM walks Soft Reserved ranges. Replace MODULE_SOFTDEP("pre: cxl_acpi") with an explicit, synchronous request_module("cxl_acpi"). MODULE_SOFTDEP() only guarantees eventual loading, it does not enforce that the dependency has finished init before the current module runs. This can cause HMEM to start before cxl_acpi has populated the resource tree, breaking detection of overlaps between Soft Reserved and CXL Windows. Also, request cxl_pci before HMEM walks Soft Reserved ranges. Unlike cxl_acpi, cxl_pci attach is asynchronous and creates dependent devices that trigger further module loads. Asynchronous probe flushing (wait_for_device_probe()) is added later in the series in a deferred context before HMEM makes ownership decisions for Soft Reserved ranges. Add an additional explicit Kconfig ordering so that CXL_ACPI and CXL_PCI must be initialized before DEV_DAX_HMEM. This prevents HMEM from consuming Soft Reserved ranges before CXL drivers have had a chance to claim them.
