[RFC PATCH] mm/nvdimm: Fix kernel crash on devm_mremap_pages_release

[Aneesh Kumar K.V]

When we initialize the namespace, if we support altmap, we don't initialize all the
backing struct page where as while releasing the namespace we look at some of
these uninitilized struct page. This results in a kernel crash as below.
