nvdimm core use nd_pfn_validate when looking for devdax or fsdax namespace. In this case device resources are allocated against nd_namespace_io dev. In-order to allow remap of range in nd_pfn_clear_memmap_error(), move the device memmap area clearing while initializing pfn namespace. With this device resource are allocated against nd_pfn and we can use nd_pfn->dev for remapping. This also avoids calling nd_pfn_clear_mmap_errors twice. Once while probing the namespace and second while initializing a pfn namespace.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
