[PATCH] device-dax: don't set kobj parent during cdev init

[Logan Gunthorpe]

I copied this code and per feedback from Greg Kroah-Hartman [1] the
cdev's kobject's parent should not be set to the related device.
This should have minor consequences but isn't doing what anyone
expects it to.

This patch then fixes device-dax so it doesn't make the same mistake.
