My eyes only know how to read unified diff (diff -u) format. Is this
saying that in the failure case the System RAM range for dax1.0 is
missing?


Sorry for that formatting. I realized later.
Yes. dax1.0 missing in the failure case.

Looks like problem is that,

4050000000-604fffffff : Soft Reserved
4050000000-604fffffff : CXL Window 0
4080000000-5fffffffff : dax1.0
4080000000-5fffffffff : System RAM (kmem)

this use case where,

|A<------------->D| CXL window
|..|B<-->C|.......| kmem

B->C range that falls within A->D as in above somehow
not covered after the patch.
