Can we have a comment here?  Without that it feels a bit too much like
black magic when reading the code.

Where the else if evaluates to MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX ||
MEMORY_DEVICE_GENERIC.  Maybe make this a switch statement handling
all cases of the enum to make it clear and have the compiler generate
a warning when a new type is added without being handled here?

Similarly here a switch with explanation of what will be handled and
what not would be nice.
