This patch is meant to force the device registration for nvdimm devices to
be closer to the actual device. This is achieved by using either the NUMA
node ID of the region, or of the parent. By doing this we can have
everything above the region based on the region, and everything below the
region based on the nvdimm bus.

One additional change I made is that we hold onto a reference to the parent
while we are going through registration. By doing this we can guarantee we
can complete the registration before we have the parent device removed.

By guaranteeing NUMA locality I see an improvement of as high as 25% for
per-node init of a system with 12TB of persistent memory.

Good catch. The child does not pin the parent until registration, but
we need to make sure the parent isn't gone while were waiting for the
registration work to run.

Let's break this reference count fix out into its own separate patch,
because this looks to be covering a gap that may need to be
recommended for -stable.

Devices already automatically inherit the node of their parent, so I'm
not understanding why this is needed?

Okay, I guess I can do that.

That doesn't happen until you call device_add, which you don't call 
until nd_async_device_register. All that has been called on the device 
up to now is device_initialize which leaves the node at NUMA_NO_NODE.

Ooh, yeah, missed that. I think I'd prefer this policy to moved out to
where we set the dev->parent before calling __nd_device_register, or
at least a comment here about *why* we know region devices are special
(i.e. because the nd_region_desc specified the node at region creation
time).

Are you talking about pulling the scheduling out or just adding a node 
value to the nd_device_register call so it can be set directly from the 
caller?

If you wanted what I could do is pull the set_dev_node call from 
nvdimm_bus_uevent and place it in nd_device_register. That should stick 
as the node doesn't get overwritten by the parent if it is set after 
device_initialize. If I did that along with the parent bit I was already 
doing then all that would be left to do in is just use the dev_to_node 
call on the device itself.

I was thinking everywhere we set dev->parent before registering, also
set the node...

...but this is even better.

That will not work unless we move the call to device_initialize to 
somewhere before you are setting the node. That is why I was thinking it 
might work to put the node assignment in nd_device_register itself since 
it looks like the regions don't call __nd_device_register directly.

I guess we could get rid of nd_device_register if we wanted to go that 
route.

I'm not sure it adds that much. Basically My thought was we just need to 
make sure to set the device node after the call to device_initialize but 
before the call to device_add. This just seems like a bunch more work 
spread the device_initialize calls all over and introduce possible 
regressions.

Yeah, device_initialize() clobbering the numa_node makes it awkward.
Lets go with what you have presently and fix up the comment to say why
region devices are special.
