I'd suggest adding a new function HostMemoryBackend::alloc() then in
HostmemoryBackend::complete() we can do things like:

  alloc();
  mbind();
  preallocate();


If letting subclasses do the allocation in its' own complete() function,
we will have trouble setting memory policies and like in
HostmemoryBackend::complete().
