We should handle the below error details here. 

1) If we hit an error after some blocks got added, should we iterate over rest of the dev_dax->nr_range.
2) With some blocks added if we return a failure here, we remove the
resource in dax_kmem. Is that ok? 

IMHO error handling with partial creation of memory blocks in a resource range should be
documented with this change.
