[PATCH 0/5] PCI/CXL: Save and restore CXL DVSEC and HDM state across resets

CXL devices could lose their DVSEC configuration and HDM decoder programming
after multiple reset methods (whenever link disable/enable). This means a
device that was fully configured — with DVSEC control/range registers set
and HDM decoders committed — loses that state after reset. In cases where
these are programmed by firmware, downstream drivers are unable to re-initialize
the device because CXL memory ranges are no longer mapped.
This series adds CXL state save/restore logic to the PCI core so
that DVSEC and HDM decoder state is preserved across any PCI reset
path that calls pci_save_state() / pci_restore_state(), for a CXL capable device.
HDM decoder defines and the cxl_register_map infrastructure are moved from
internal CXL driver headers to a new public include/cxl/pci.h, allowing
drivers/pci/cxl.c to use them.
This layout aligns with Alejandro Lucero's CXL Type-2 device series [1] to
minimize conflicts when both land. When he rebases to 7.0-rc2, I can move my
changes on top of his.
These patches were previously part of the CXL reset series and have been
split out [2] to allow independent review and merging. Review feedback on
the save/restore portions from v4 has been addressed.
Tested on a CXL Type-2 device. DVSEC and HDM state is correctly saved
before reset and restored after, with decoder commit confirmed via the
COMMITTED status bit. Type-3 device testing is in progress.
This series is based on v7.0-rc1.
