[PATCH v3 1/7] mm: memremap: register/unregister altmap region to a separate resource

The elfcorehdr descirbes the dumpable region in PT_LOADs.

Generally, an iomem resource registered with flags
(IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM | IORESOUCE_BUSY) will be added to PT_LOADs by
kexe_file_load(2). An iomem resource with name prefix "System RAM" will
be added to PT_LOADs in kexec-tools by calling kexe_load(2).

So a simple way to make the altmap dumpable is to register altmap region
as a separate resource with the proper name and resource flags.

Here naming it as "Device Backed Vmemmap" plus resource flags
(IORESOURCE_DEVICE_BACKED_VMEMMAP and IORESOUCE_BUSY) to make it work first.

A /proc/iomem example is as following:
$ sudo cat /proc/iomem
...
fffc0000-ffffffff : Reserved
100000000-13fffffff : Persistent Memory
  100000000-10fffffff : namespace0.0
    100000000-1005fffff : Device Backed Vmemmap  # fsdax
a80000000-b7fffffff : CXL Window 0
  a80000000-affffffff : Persistent Memory
    a80000000-affffffff : region1
      a80000000-a811fffff : namespace1.0
        a80000000-a811fffff : Device Backed Vmemmap # devdax
      a81200000-abfffffff : dax1.0
b80000000-c7fffffff : CXL Window 1
c80000000-147fffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00
  c80000000-c801fffff : PCI Bus 0000:01
...
