[PATCH v15 04/10] mm/demotion/dax/kmem: Set node's abstract distance to MEMTIER_DEFAULT_DAX_ADISTANCE

From: Aneesh Kumar K.V
Date: Thu Aug 18 2022 - 09:14:42 EST


By default, all nodes are assigned to the default memory tier which
is the memory tier designated for nodes with DRAM

Set dax kmem device node's tier to slower memory tier by assigning
abstract distance to MEMTIER_DEFAULT_DAX_ADISTANCE. Low-level drivers
like papr_scm or ACPI NFIT can initialize memory device type to a
more accurate value based on device tree details or HMAT. If the
kernel doesn't find the memory type initialized, a default slower
memory type is assigned by the kmem driver.
