[PATCH v4 6/7] dax/hmem: Save the DAX HMEM platform device pointer

From: Smita Koralahalli
Date: Tue Jun 03 2025 - 18:21:35 EST


From: Nathan Fontenot <nathan.fontenot@xxxxxxx>

To enable registration of HMEM devices for SOFT RESERVED regions after
the DAX HMEM device is initialized, this patch saves a reference to the
DAX HMEM platform device.

This saved pointer will be used in a follow-up patch to allow late
registration of SOFT RESERVED memory ranges. It also enables
simplification of the walk_hmem_resources() by removing the need to
pass a struct device argument.

There are no functional changes.
