cxl/pmem: Fix nvdimm unregistration when cxl_pmem driver is absent
The cxl_pmem.ko module houses the driver for both cxl_nvdimm_bridge
objects and cxl_nvdimm objects. When the core creates a cxl_nvdimm it
arranges for it to be autoremoved when the bridge goes down. However, if
the bridge never initialized because the cxl_pmem.ko module never
loaded, it sets up a the following crash scenario:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address:

It turns out the recent rework to simplify nvdimm probing obviated the
need to unregister cxl_nvdimm objects at cxl_nvdimm_bridge ->remove()
time. Leave the cxl_nvdimm device registered until the hosting
cxl_memdev departs. The alternative is that the cxl_memdev needs to be
reattached whenever the cxl_nvdimm_bridge attach state cycles, which is
awkward and unnecessary.
The only requirement is to make sure that when the cxl_nvdimm_bridge
goes away any dependent cxl_nvdimm objects are shutdown. Handle that in
unregister_nvdimm_bus().
With these registration entanglements removed there is no longer a need
to pre-load the cxl_pmem module in cxl_acpi.
