device-dax: fail all private mapping attempts
The device-dax implementation originally tried to be tricky and allow
private read-only mappings, but in the process allowed writable
MAP_PRIVATE + MAP_NORESERVE mappings. For simplicity and predictability
just fail all private mapping attempts since device-dax memory is
statically allocated and will never support overcommit.
