cxl: add a firmware update mechanism using the sysfs firmware loader
The sysfs based firmware loader mechanism was created to easily allow userspace to upload firmware images to FPGA cards. This also happens to be pretty suitable to create a user-initiated but kernel-controlled firmware update mechanism for CXL devices, using the CXL specified mailbox commands.
Since firmware update commands can be long-running, and can be processed in the background by the endpoint device, it is desirable to have the ability to chunk the firmware transfer down to smaller pieces, so that one operation does not monopolize the mailbox, locking out any other long running background commands entirely - e.g. security commands like 'sanitize' or poison scanning operations.
The firmware loader mechanism allows a natural way to perform this chunking, as after each mailbox command, that is restricted to the maximum mailbox payload size, the cxl memdev driver relinquishes control back to the fw_loader system and awaits the next chunk of data to transfer. This opens opportunities for other background commands to access the mailbox and send their own slices of background commands.
Add the necessary helpers and state tracking to be able to perform the 'Get FW Info', 'Transfer FW', and 'Activate FW' mailbox commands as described in the CXL spec. Wire these up to the firmware loader callbacks, and register with that system to create the memX/firmware/ sysfs ABI.

cxl/mem: Wire up Sanitization support
Implement support for CXL 3.0 8.2.9.8.5.1 Sanitize. This is done by adding a security/sanitize' memdev sysfs file to trigger the operation and extend the status file to make it poll(2)-capable for completion. Unlike all other background commands, this is the only operation that is special and monopolizes the device for long periods of time.
In addition to the traditional pmem security requirements, all regions must also be offline in order to perform the operation. This permits avoiding explicit global CPU cache management, relying instead on the implict cache management when a region transitions between CXL_CONFIG_ACTIVE and CXL_CONFIG_COMMIT.
The expectation is that userspace can use it such as:

cxl/hdm: Commit decoder state to hardware
After all the soft validation of the region has completed, convey the region configuration to hardware while being careful to commit decoders in specification mandated order. In addition to programming the endpoint decoder base-address, interleave ways and granularity, the switch decoder target lists are also established.
While the kernel can enforce spec-mandated commit order, it can not enforce spec-mandated reset order. For example, the kernel can't stop someone from removing an endpoint device that is occupying decoderN in a switch decoder where decoderN+1 is also committed. To reset decoderN, decoderN+1 must be torn down first. That "tear down the world" implementation is saved for a follow-on patch.
Callback operations are provided for the 'commit' and 'reset' operations. While those callbacks may prove useful for CXL accelerators (Type-2 devices with memory) the primary motivation is to enable a simple way for cxl_test to intercept those operations.

The allocator for this capacity reuses the 'struct resource' based allocator used for CONFIG_DEVICE_PRIVATE.
Once the tuple of "ways, granularity, [uuid], and size" is set the region configuration transitions to the CXL_CONFIG_INTERLEAVE_ACTIVE state which is a precursor to allowing endpoint decoders to be added to a region.

Whereas DDR and PMEM resources are conveyed statically at boot, CXL allows for assembling and instantiating new regions from the available capacity of CXL memory expanders in the system.
Sysfs with an "echo $region_name > $create_region_attribute" interface is chosen as the mechanism to initiate the provisioning process. This was chosen over ioctl() and netlink() to keep the configuration interface entirely in a pseudo-fs interface, and it was chosen over configfs since, aside from this one creation event, the interface is read-mostly. I.e. configfs supports cases where an object is designed to be provisioned each boot, like an iSCSI storage target, and CXL region creation is mostly for PMEM regions which are created usually once per-lifetime of a server instance. This is an improvement over nvdimm that pre-created "seed" devices that tended to confuse users looking to determine which devices are active and which are idle.
Recall that the major change that CXL brings over previous persistent memory architectures is the ability to dynamically define new regions. Compare that to drivers like 'nfit' where the region configuration is statically defined by platform firmware.
Regions are created as a child of a root decoder that encompasses an address space with constraints. When created through sysfs, the root decoder is explicit. When created from an LSA's region structure a root decoder will possibly need to be inferred by the driver.
Upon region creation through sysfs, a vacant region is created with a unique name. Regions have a number of attributes that must be configured before the region can be bound to the driver where HDM decoder program is completed.
An example of creating a new region:
- Allocate a new region name: region=$(cat /sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoder0.0/create_pmem_region)
- Create a new region by name: while region=$(cat /sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoder0.0/create_pmem_region) ! echo $region > /sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoder0.0/create_pmem_region do true; done
- Region now exists in sysfs: stat -t /sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoder0.0/$region
- Delete the region, and name: echo $region > /sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoder0.0/delete_region

cxl/hdm: Add sysfs attributes for interleave ways + granularity
The region provisioning flow involves selecting interleave ways + granularity settings for a region, and then programming the decoder topology to meet those constraints, if possible. For example, root decoders set the minimum interleave ways + granularity for any hosted regions.
Given decoder programming is not atomic and collisions can occur between multiple requesting regions userspace will be responsible for conflict resolution and it needs these attributes to make those decisions.

cxl/hdm: Add support for allocating DPA to an endpoint decoder
The region provisioning flow will roughly follow a sequence of:
1/ Allocate DPA to a set of decoders
2/ Allocate HPA to a region
3/ Associate decoders with a region and validate that the DPA allocations and topologies match the parameters of the region.
For now, this change (step 1) arranges for DPA capacity to be allocated and deleted from non-committed decoders based on the decoder's mode / partition selection. Capacity is allocated from the lowest DPA in the partition and any 'pmem' allocation blocks out all remaining ram capacity in its 'skip' setting. DPA allocations are enforced in decoder instance order. I.e. decoder N + 1 always starts at a higher DPA than instance N, and deleting allocations must proceed from the highest-instance allocated decoder to the lowest.

cxl/hdm: Add 'mode' attribute to decoder objects
Recall that the Device Physical Address (DPA) space of a CXL Memory Expander is potentially partitioned into a volatile and persistent portion. A decoder maps a Host Physical Address (HPA) range to a DPA range and that translation depends on the value of all previous (lower instance number) decoders before the current one.
In preparation for allowing dynamic provisioning of regions, decoders need an ABI to indicate which DPA partition a decoder targets. This ABI needs to be prepared for the possibility that some other agent committed and locked a decoder that spans the partition boundary.
Add 'decoderX.Y/mode' to endpoint decoders that indicates which partition 'ram' / 'pmem' the decoder targets, or 'mixed' if the decoder currently spans the partition boundary.

cxl/port: Read CDAT table
The per-device CDAT data provides performance data that is relevant for mapping which CXL devices can participate in which CXL ranges by QTG (QoS Throttling Group) (per ECN: CXL 2.0 CEDT CFMWS & QTG_DSM) [1]. The QTG association specified in the ECN is advisory. Until the cxl_acpi driver grows support for invoking the QTG _DSM method the CDAT data is only of interest to userspace that may need it for debug purposes.
Search the DOE mailboxes available, query CDAT data, cache the data and make it available via a sysfs binary attribute per endpoint at:
/sys/bus/cxl/devices/endpointX/CDAT
...similar to other ACPI-structured table data in /sys/firmware/ACPI/tables. The CDAT is relative to 'struct cxl_port' objects since switches in addition to endpoints can host a CDAT instance. Switch CDAT support is not implemented.
This does not support table updates at runtime. It will always provide whatever was there when first cached. It is also the case that table updates are not expected outside of explicit DPA address map affecting commands like Set Partition with the immediate flag set. Given that the driver does not support Set Partition with the immediate flag set there is no current need for update support.

cxl/mem: Add the cxl_mem driver
At this point the subsystem can enumerate all CXL ports (CXL.mem decode resources in upstream switch ports and host bridges) in a system. The last mile is connecting those ports to endpoints.
The cxl_mem driver connects an endpoint device to the platform CXL.mem protoctol decode-topology. At ->probe() time it walks its device-topology-ancestry and adds a CXL Port object at every Upstream Port hop until it gets to CXL root. The CXL root object is only present after a platform firmware driver registers platform CXL resources. For ACPI based platform this is managed by the ACPI0017 device and the cxl_acpi driver.
The ports are registered such that disabling a given port automatically unregisters all descendant ports, and the chain can only be registered after the root is established.
Given ACPI device scanning may run asynchronously compared to PCI device scanning the root driver is tasked with rescanning the bus after the root successfully probes.
Conversely if any ports in a chain between the root and an endpoint becomes disconnected it subsequently triggers the endpoint to unregister. Given lock depenedencies the endpoint unregistration happens in a workqueue asynchronously. If userspace cares about synchronizing delayed work after port events the /sys/bus/cxl/flush attribute is available for that purpose.
