Device DAX now uses the common per-zone shared tail page for vmemmap
deduplication. The old documentation still described a DAX-specific
layout with a separately populated tail vmemmap page and half the HugeTLB
savings.

Update the generic and powerpc documentation to describe the shared layout.
In the powerpc document, keep the radix and 64K-specific details, drop the
duplicated 4K PUD arithmetic, and replace the repeated device-dax diagrams
with a single parameterized PMD/PUD diagram.

- Clarify the commit message to state that the 4K PUD arithmetic is
   intentionally dropped reported by Sashiko.
