Eligible system-ram mode change devices should be only 2[dax0.0, dax1.0], but under "daxctl list -u" is showing 1st time 4 devices [dax0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0], 2 is "state":"disabled" and 2 more devices is "mode":"devdax" which are actuall devadax to system-ram convertible devices. After reconfigure-device dax0.0, dax1.0 when you list the devices couple of more dummy/dumplicate devices are creating with "state":"disabled"[Ex: dax4.0, 5.0 etc..].
