A test of the form:

May lead to a crash signature of the form:

In that report the 0xffffffffc0660030 address corresponds to the former
function address of cxl_nvb_update_state() from a previous load of the
module, not the current address. Fix that by arranging for ->state_work
in the 'struct cxl_nvdimm_bridge' object to be reinitialized on cxl_pmem
module reload.
Details:
Recall that CXL subsystem wants to link a CXL memory expander device to
an NVDIMM sub-hierarchy when both a persistent memory range has been
registered by the CXL platform driver (cxl_acpi) *and* when that CXL
memory expander has published persistent memory capacity (Get Partition
Info). To this end the cxl_nvdimm_bridge driver arranges to rescan the
CXL bus when either of those conditions change. The helper
bus_rescan_devices() can not be called underneath the device_lock() for
any device on that bus, so the cxl_nvdimm_bridge driver uses a workqueue
for the rescan.
Typically a driver allocates driver data to hold a 'struct work_struct'
for a driven device, but for a workqueue that may run after ->remove()
returns, driver data will have been freed. The 'struct
cxl_nvdimm_bridge' object holds the state and work_struct directly.
Unfortunately it was only arranging for that infrastructure to be
initialized once per device creation rather than the necessary once per
workqueue (cxl_pmem_wq) creation.
Introduce is_cxl_nvdimm_bridge() and cxl_nvdimm_bridge_reset() in
support of invalidating stale references to a recently destroyed
cxl_pmem_wq.

The 'struct cxl_mem' object actually represents the state of a CXL
device within the driver. Comments indicating that 'struct cxl_mem' is a
device itself are incorrect. It is data layered on top of a CXL Memory
Expander class device. Rename it 'struct cxl_dev_state'. The 'struct'
cxl_memdev' structure represents a Linux CXL memory device object, and
it uses services and information provided by 'struct cxl_dev_state'.
Update the structure name, function names, and the kdocs to reflect the
real uses of this structure.
Some helper functions that were previously prefixed "cxl_mem_" are
renamed to just "cxl_".

There is a potential race between queue_work() returning and the
queued-work running that could result in put_device() running before
get_device(). Introduce the cxl_nvdimm_bridge_state_work() helper that
takes the reference unconditionally, but drops it if no new work was
queued, to keep the references balanced.

Introduce an emulated device-set plus driver to register CXL memory
devices, 'struct cxl_memdev' instances, in the mock cxl_test topology.
This enables the development of HDM Decoder (Host-managed Device Memory
Decoder) programming flow (region provisioning) in an environment that
can be updated alongside the kernel as it gains more functionality.
Whereas the cxl_pci module looks for CXL memory expanders on the 'pci'
bus, the cxl_mock_mem module attaches to CXL expanders on the platform
bus emitted by cxl_test.

In preparation for a mocked unit test environment for CXL objects, allow
for multiple unique nvdimm-bridge objects.
For now, just allow multiple bridges to be registered. Later, when there
are multiple present, further updates are needed to
cxl_find_nvdimm_bridge() to identify which bridge is associated with
which CXL hierarchy for nvdimm registration.
Note that this does change the kernel device-name for the bridge object.
User space should not have any attachment to the device name at this
point as it is still early days in the CXL driver development.

The LIBNVDIMM IOCTL UAPI calls back to the nvdimm-bus-provider to
translate the Linux command payload to the device native command format.
The LIBNVDIMM commands get-config-size, get-config-data, and
set-config-data, map to the CXL memory device commands device-identify,
get-lsa, and set-lsa. Recall that the label-storage-area (LSA) on an
NVDIMM device arranges for the provisioning of namespaces. Additionally
for CXL the LSA is used for provisioning regions as well.
The data from device-identify is already cached in the 'struct cxl_mem'
instance associated with @cxl_nvd, so that payload return is simply
crafted and no CXL command is issued. The conversion for get-lsa is
straightforward, but the conversion for set-lsa requires an allocation
to append the set-lsa header in front of the payload.

The CXL_PMEM driver expects exclusive control of the label storage area
space. Similar to the LIBNVDIMM expectation that the label storage area
is only writable from userspace when the corresponding memory device is
not active in any region, the expectation is the native CXL_PCI UAPI
path is disabled while the cxl_nvdimm for a given cxl_memdev device is
active in LIBNVDIMM.
Add the ability to toggle the availability of a given command for the
UAPI path. Use that new capability to shutdown changes to partitions and
the label storage area while the cxl_nvdimm device is actively proxying
commands for LIBNVDIMM.

CXL core is growing, and it's already arguably unmanageable. To support
future growth, move core functionality to a new directory and rename the
file to represent just bus support. Future work will remove non-bus
functionality.
Note that mem.h is renamed to cxlmem.h to avoid a namespace collision
with the global ARCH=um mem.h header.

While a memX device on /sys/bus/cxl represents a CXL memory expander
control interface, a pmemX device represents the persistent memory
sub-functionality. It bridges the CXL subystem to the libnvdimm nmemX
control interface.
With this skeleton ndctl can now see persistent memory devices on a
"CXL" bus. Later patches add support for translating libnvdimm native
commands to CXL commands.
# ndctl list -BDiu -b CXL
{
"provider":"CXL",
"dev":"ndbus1",
"dimms":[
{
"dev":"nmem1",
"state":"disabled"
},
{
"dev":"nmem0",
"state":"disabled"
}
]
}
Given nvdimm_bus_unregister() removes all devices on an ndbus0 the
cxl_pmem infrastructure needs to arrange ->remove() to be triggered on
cxl_nvdimm devices to keep their enabled state synchronized with the
registration state of their corresponding device on the nvdimm_bus. In
other words, always arrange for cxl_nvdimm_driver.remove() to unregister
nvdimms from an nvdimm_bus ahead of the bus being unregistered.

Register an 'nvdimm-bridge' device to act as an anchor for a libnvdimm
bus hierarchy. Also, flesh out the cxl_bus definition to allow a
cxl_nvdimm_bridge_driver to attach to the bridge and trigger the
nvdimm-bus registration.
The creation of the bridge is gated on the detection of a PMEM capable
address space registered to the root. The bridge indirection allows the
libnvdimm module to remain unloaded on platforms without PMEM support.
Given that the probing of ACPI0017 is asynchronous to CXL endpoint
devices, and the expectation that CXL endpoint devices register other
PMEM resources on the 'CXL' nvdimm bus, a workqueue is added. The
workqueue is needed to run bus_rescan_devices() outside of the
device_lock() of the nvdimm-bridge device to rendezvous nvdimm resources
as they arrive. For now only the bus is taken online/offline in the
workqueue.
