Only one "Signed-off-by:" tag is required, the second one below
is at the desired location. So, please drop the above.

It is advisable to split this patch into two, as they affect files
maintained by different subsystems. i.e., coresight and CXL. Since
they go via different maintainers, it is always better to split
the patch (especially when there is no functional dependency, like
this case).

Also, I see that you haven't copied any of the maintainers for the CXL 
subsystem. Running "scripts/get_maintainer.pl" on the affected file
or the patch should give you the email addresses for the concerned
maintainers/list.

e.g:

$ scripts/get_maintainer.pl Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-cxl

So, please resend the patch after splitting, to the respective 
maintainers/reviewers/list.
