mm, hmm: use devm semantics for hmm_devmem_{add, remove}
devm semantics arrange for resources to be torn down when
device-driver-probe fails or when device-driver-release completes.
Similar to devm_memremap_pages() there is no need to support an explicit
remove operation when the users properly adhere to devm semantics.
Note that devm_kzalloc() automatically handles allocating node-local
memory.
