#1324497 — [PATCH 3/3] ACPI: Change NFIT driver to set PMEM type to iomem entry

Change acpi_nfit_register_region() to call iomem_set_desc() with
IORES_DESC_PERSISTENT_MEMORY for NFIT_SPA_PM ranges found in ACPI
NFIT table.

When FW sets E820_PMEM in e820 and EFI_PERSISTENT_MEMORY in EFI,
this code simply sets PMEM type again to "Persistent Memory" entries
in the iomem table.  When FW sets reserved type for persistent
memory ranges, it sets PMEM type to "reserved" entries covering
PMEM ranges.

This allows the EINJ driver, which calls region_intersects() with
IORES_DESC_PERSISTENT_MEMORY to check persistent memory ranges,
to work continuously even if FW sets reserved type to persistent
memory in e820 and EFI.
