Register the CMB in a gen_pool dedicated to manage CMB regions. Use the

And why would the NVMe driver care if "they are registered"?

Once we start allowing diverse CMB uses (what happened to Jon's patches
btw?) genalloc might be a good backend allocator, but without that
it's entirely pointless.  Also please don't introduce useless header
files.
