The plan is that it can be something else, like high bandwidth memory
for example.

There's currently no public (outside of dax.c) usage for taking a
reference against a region. This export is really only there to keep
dax_region_free() private.

Not without an explicit trace point to re-add the dev_printk details.
What I really want, and has been on the back burner for a long time,
is to enhance dynamic debug to turn all individual dev_dbg()
statements optionally into trace points.

I'm not sure that trivial wrapper is worth it.

Indeed, you're right. That same bug is also present in multiple
places in drivers/nvdimm/.

Good point, I'll just remove the need for it.
