41	  EFI 2.8 platforms, and others, may advertise 'specific purpose'
42	  memory. For example, a high bandwidth memory pool. The
43	  indication from platform firmware is meant to reserve the
44	  memory from typical usage by default. This driver creates
45	  device-dax instances for these memory ranges, and that also
46	  enables the possibility to assign them to the DEV_DAX_KMEM
47	  driver to override the reservation and add them to kernel
48	  "System RAM" pool.
49
50	  Say M if unsure.

63	  Support access to persistent, or other performance
64	  differentiated memory as if it were System RAM. This allows
65	  easier use of persistent memory by unmodified applications, or
66	  adds core kernel memory services to heterogeneous memory types
67	  (HMEM) marked "reserved" by platform firmware.

69	  To use this feature, a DAX device must be unbound from the
