My preference would be for this function to be something like:
---
static int cxl_region_invalidate_memregion(struct cxl_region *cxlr)
{
	if (cpu_cache_has_invalidate_memregion()) {
		cpu_cache_invalidate_memregion(IORES_DESC_CXL);
		return 0;
	}

	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CXL_REGION_INVALIDATION_TEST)) {
		dev_warn_once(&cxlr->dev,
			      "Bypassing cpu_cache_invalidate_memregion() for testing!\n");
		return 0;
	}

	dev_err(&cxlr->dev, "Failed to synchronize CPU cache state\n");
	return -ENXIO;
}
