[PATCH v6 02/31] cxl/regs: Let a BAR-owning driver own the component register block

From: mhonap

Date: Fri Oct 16 2026 - 13:56:54 EST


From: Manish Honap <mhonap@xxxxxxxxxx>

cxl_map_component_regs() claims each mapped sub-block with
devm_request_mem_region(). A driver that requests the whole component
register BAR itself, such as vfio-cxl, would then collide with that
claim and fail to map the HDM decoder and RAS blocks.

Add cxl_reg_map_set_owned_resource() so such a driver records the
resource it already owns, the whole component register BAR, on the
register map.

Skip the sub-block request for a block inside that resource, and fail with
-ENXIO for a block outside it.
