I do not see how this patch could have made any difference. It merely
reorganizes the code. It doesn't change any logic wrt. to the
devm_memremap_pages which keeps using arch_add_memory obviously.
Besides that it is not really unusual to see order 9 allocations
failing. I haven't checked whether this is really what should be done
for nvme path because they should be allocating struct pages backed by
the nvme directly AFAIR but again that shouldn't be changed by the above
commit so this is likely a false positive.
