Thanks for commenting on the patch.

Will generate another patch for corresponding subsystem.
I had ran the get_maintainer script on the CXL subsystem , but didn't get any maintainer's name other than the commit_signers

Another nit: Please do not top post your replies. Use inline replies.

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
<http://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 <http://get_maintainer.pl>
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-cxl

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