[PATCH v5 2/3] cxl/core/region: move dax region device logic into region_dax.c
From: Gregory Price
Date: Thu Mar 26 2026 - 22:04:39 EST
core/region.c is overloaded with per-region control logic (pmem, dax,
sysram, etc). Move the CXL DAX region device infrastructure from
region.c into a new region_dax.c file.
This will also allow us to add additional dax-driver integration paths
that don't further dirty the core region.c logic.
No functional changes.
