mm, devm_memremap_pages: fix shutdown handling

The last step before devm_memremap_pages() returns success is to allocate
a release action, devm_memremap_pages_release(), to tear the entire setup
down.  However, the result from devm_add_action() is not checked.

Checking the error from devm_add_action() is not enough.  The api
currently relies on the fact that the percpu_ref it is using is killed by
the time the devm_memremap_pages_release() is run.  Rather than continue
this awkward situation, offload the responsibility of killing the
percpu_ref to devm_memremap_pages_release() directly.  This allows
devm_memremap_pages() to do the right thing relative to init failures and
shutdown.

Without this change we could fail to register the teardown of
devm_memremap_pages().  The likelihood of hitting this failure is tiny as
small memory allocations almost always succeed.  However, the impact of
the failure is large given any future reconfiguration, or disable/enable,
of an nvdimm namespace will fail forever as subsequent calls to
devm_memremap_pages() will fail to setup the pgmap_radix since there will
be stale entries for the physical address range.

An argument could be made to require that the ->kill() operation be set in
the @pgmap arg rather than passed in separately.  However, it helps code
readability, tracking the lifetime of a given instance, to be able to grep
the kill routine directly at the devm_memremap_pages() call site.
