Ugh, when did all this HMM specific manipulation sneak into the
generic ZONE_DEVICE path? It used to be gated by pgmap type with its
own put_zone_device_private_page(). For example it's certainly
unnecessary and might be broken (would need to check) to call
mem_cgroup_uncharge() on a DAX page. ZONE_DEVICE users are not a
monolith and the HMM use case leaks pages into code paths that DAX
explicitly avoids.
