[PATCH 15/15] cxl/acpi: Specify module load order dependency for the cxl_acpi module

[Robert Richter]

In RCD mode the CXL mem dev may be detected on the PCI bus before a
CXL host is brought up. This may cause a CXL mem initialization
failure as it expects the CXL host already detected. Address this by
specifying the module dependencies using MODULE_SOFTDEP().

The following additional dependencies exist:

 * cxl_mem depends on cxl_acpi: The CXL hosts must be discovered
   before the CXL device is initialized.

 * cxl_acpi depends on cxl_port: The acpi driver adds ports to the cxl
   bus, the port driver should be loaded before. This might also work
   if modules are loaded in different order, but a) it aligns with the
   existing cxl_mem/cxl_port softdep and b) it always guarantees a fix
   module load order.
