[PATCH v2] cxl/pci: Remove incorrect mbox.valid check in cxl_pci_type3_init_mailbox()

[Wei Hou <wei.hou@scaleflux.com>]

The driver's design intent is that missing or malformed component
registers should not prevent mailbox initialization. cxl_pci_probe()
already reflects this: the CXL_REGLOC_RBI_COMPONENT setup path only
emits a dev_warn() and continues when component registers are absent,
rather than returning an error.

The check 'if (!cxlds->reg_map.device_map.mbox.valid)' violates this
intent and is also technically incorrect for two reasons:

1. Wrong struct: the MEMDEV register block is enumerated into a local
   variable 'map', not into 'cxlds->reg_map'. The device_map.mbox.valid
   field inside cxlds->reg_map is never written by the MEMDEV probe and
   will always read as zero regardless of actual hardware capability.

2. Already validated: cxl_pci_setup_regs(CXL_REGLOC_RBI_MEMDEV) calls
   cxl_probe_regs() which explicitly checks mbox.valid and returns
   -ENXIO if the mailbox is absent. If that check passes, the mailbox is
   guaranteed to be present by the time cxl_pci_type3_init_mailbox() is
   called.

The value that the check actually reads is component_map.ras.valid,
which aliases device_map.mbox.valid in the union. This is populated by
the COMPONENT probe, not the MEMDEV probe. On devices where the
component register BAR does not implement a CXL Component Capability
Array (e.g. certain DCD devices), cxl_probe_component_regs() returns
early leaving ras.valid=false. Through the union, this makes mbox.valid
read as false, causing cxl_pci_type3_init_mailbox() to return -ENODEV
(-19) even though the mailbox hardware is fully functional.

Remove the check. Mailbox presence has already been validated by
cxl_pci_setup_regs(CXL_REGLOC_RBI_MEMDEV). The presence or absence of
component registers is irrelevant to mailbox initialization.
