[v4,10/12] nvdimm: convert nvdimm_mr into a pointer

This way we can easily check if the region has already been inititalized
without having to rely on the size of an uninitialized region being 0.

missed leak,
you need to free this manually in unrealize() in this patch but
considering that the next patches would move this allocation before
realize, it has to be move to finalize(). So make a note in commit
message explaining why finalize() is used prematurely.

probably no need to respin whole series, just send v5 of this patch
as reply here if change doesn't break series.

Very right, thanks. finalize() seems to be the right spot.
