CXL 3.0

8.1.3 PCIe DVSEC for CXL Device

"""
An RCD creates a new PCIe enumeration hierarchy. As such, it spawns a new Root Bus
and can expose one or more PCIe device numbers and function numbers at this bus
number. These are exposed as Root Complex Integrated Endpoints (RCiEP). The PCIe
Configuration Space of Device 0, Function 0 shall include the CXL PCIe DVSEC as shown
in Figure 8-1.
"""

"""
In either case, the capability, status, and control fields in Device 0, Function 0 DVSEC
control the CXL functionality of the entire device.
"""

There are some other occurrences. I think this is even true for VH
mode, as multiple CXL devices on the bus are exposed through multiple
DSPs or Root Ports.

Anyway, I limited this to an RCD only, esp. because its counterpart
would be missing and thus port mapping would fail otherwise. See
restricted_host_enumerate_dport() of this series.

Ok.

I have chosen dev_warn() here as this is a non-compliant unexpected
behavior of the device. There are no (legal) cases this may happen. I
suppose you are worried about spamming the console here, but that
error should be reported somewhere and thus being visible.

Note: There can be multiple devices on the bus, but those shouldn't
have a CXL mem dev class code and the devices shouldn't being probed
by cxl_pci_probe() which contains the check and later creates a cxlmd
dev.
