Subject: [PATCH 1/6] mm/zone-device: rename DEVICE_PUBLIC to DEVICE_HOST

Existing user of ZONE_DEVICE in its DEVICE_PUBLIC variant are not tie
to specific device and behave more like host memory. This patch rename
DEVICE_PUBLIC to DEVICE_HOST and free the name DEVICE_PUBLIC to be use
for cache coherent device memory that has strong tie with the device
on which the memory is (for instance on board GPU memory).

There is no functional change here.
