Subject: [PATCH 4.4 121/137] devm_memremap_release(): fix memremapd addr handling

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@....com>

commit 9273a8bbf58a15051e53a777389a502420ddc60e upstream.

The pmem driver calls devm_memremap() to map a persistent memory range.
When the pmem driver is unloaded, this memremap'd range is not released
so the kernel will leak a vma.

Fix devm_memremap_release() to handle a given memremap'd address
properly.
