Subject: [PATCH v2] device-dax: Auto-bind device after successful new_id

The typical 'new_id' attribute behavior is to immediately attach a
device to its driver after a new device-id is added. Implement this
behavior for the dax bus.

Changes since v1:
* Fix the remove_id path since do_id_store() is shared with the new_id
  path (Brice)

Brice, this works for me. I'll push it out on libnvdimm-pending, or in
the meantime you can apply this patch after reverting commit
a9f1ffdb6a20 on the current state of the branch.
