[PATCH 6.6.y] cxl/mem: Fix no cxl_nvd during pmem region auto-assembling

[PATCH 6.6.y] cxl/mem: Fix no cxl_nvd during pmem region auto-assembling

[Artem Dinaburg]

From: Li Ming <ming4.li@intel.com>

[ Upstream commit 84ec985944ef34a34a1605b93ce401aa8737af96 ]

When CXL subsystem is auto-assembling a pmem region during cxl
endpoint port probing, always hit below calltrace.

 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000078

The cxl_nvd of the memdev needs to be available during the pmem region
probe. Currently the cxl_nvd is registered after the endpoint port probe.
The endpoint probe, in the case of autoassembly of regions, can cause a
pmem region probe requiring the not yet available cxl_nvd. Adjust the
sequence so this dependency is met.

This requires adding a port parameter to cxl_find_nvdimm_bridge() that
can be used to query the ancestor root port. The endpoint port is not
yet available, but will share a common ancestor with its parent, so
start the query from there instead.

[ Backport to 6.6.y: mapped find_cxl_root() and reference handling to the
  older struct cxl_port and put_device() APIs. The new early error return
  explicitly drops parent_port because 6.6.y lacks the scoped cleanup later
  added by upstream commit dd2617ebd2a6 ("cxl/port: Use __free() to drop
  put_device() for cxl_port"). ]

Hi Greg, Sasha, and cxl maintainers,

I am working through the small CVE backports still missing from 6.6.y.
This one addresses CVE-2024-41085. It registers the nvdimm bridge before
endpoint probing can auto-assemble a pmem region.

The fix is already present in 6.12.y, 6.18.y, and 7.2.y, but not in 6.6.y.
The target-specific adjustment is recorded in the bracketed note above.
The added error-path put_device() matches the cleanup that current mainline
performs automatically through its scoped cxl_port reference.

Could you please queue it for 6.6.y?

CVE: CVE-2024-41085
Upstream: 84ec985944ef34a34a1605b93ce401aa8737af96

AI assistance: An LLM helped identify, adapt, and validate this backport; I
reviewed the resulting code and validation evidence.

Thanks,
Artem Dinaburg

Queued for 6.6, thanks.
