cxl_walk_cel() job is to create the enabled_cmds list for the device.
How about we use that language in the message, like:

		set_bit(cmd->info.id, cxlds->enabled_cmds);
-               dev_dbg(cxlds->dev, "Opcode 0x%04x supported by driver\n", opcode);
+               dev_dbg(cxlds->dev, "Opcode 0x%04x enabled\n", opcode);

Because when we say, "Opcode 0x%04x supported by driver\n", that comes
with the assumption that the device supported it too. By saying
'enabled', it's clear device and driver are aligned.
