Subject: [PATCH V3 2/2] virtio_pmem: set device ready in probe()

The NVDIMM region could be available before the virtio_device_ready()
that is called by virtio_dev_probe(). This means the driver tries to
use device before DRIVER_OK which violates the spec, fixing this by
set device ready before the nvdimm_pmem_region_create().

Note that this means the virtio_pmem_host_ack() could be triggered
before the creation of the nd region, this is safe since the pmem_lock
has been initialized and whether or not any available buffer is added
before is validated by virtio_pmem_host_ack().

Fixes 6e84200c0a29 ("virtio-pmem: Add virtio pmem driver")
