Subject: [GIT PULL] Compute Express Link (CXL) Fixes for 6.8-rc6

Hi Linus, please pull from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cxl/cxl tags/cxl-fixes-6.8-rc6

..to receive a collection of significant fixes for the CXL subsystem.
The largest change in this set, that bordered on "new development", is
the fix for the fact that the location of the new qos_class attribute
did not match the Documentation. The fix ends up deleting more code than
it added, and it has a new unit test to backstop basic errors in this
interface going forward. So the "red-diff" and unit test saved the "rip
it out and try again" response.

In contrast, the new notification path for firmware reported CXL errors
(CXL CPER notifications) has a locking context bug that can not be fixed
with a red-diff. Given where the release cycle stands, it is not
comfortable to squeeze in that fix in these waning days. So, that
receives the "back it out and try again later" treatment.

There is a regression fix in the code that establishes memory NUMA nodes
for platform CXL regions. That has an ack from x86 folks. There are a
couple more fixups for Linux to understand (reassemble) CXL regions
instantiated by platform firmware. The policy around platforms that do
not match host-physical-address with system-physical-address (i.e.
systems that have an address translation mechanism between the address
range reported in the ACPI CEDT.CFMWS and endpoint decoders) has been
softened to abort driver load rather than teardown the memory range (can
cause system hangs). Lastly, there is a robustness / regression fix for
cases where the driver would previously continue in the face of error,
and a fixup for PCI error notification handling.

This has a build success notification from the kbuild-robot. Stephen noticed
that I needed to rebase the cxl/next branch which pushed out this pull
request by a week, but no other linux-next reports since.
