Changes

Event though during Firecracker normal run pmem devices are never removed, so there is no need to unmap memory, it is important for fuzzer runs, as otherwise it runs out of virtual memory.
Additionally make mmap_backing_file private since it is only called from within Pmem device.

Reason

Makes fuzzing possible
