Frederic Barrat ea2d1f95ef cxl: Isolate a few bare-metal-specific calls
A few functions are mostly common between bare-metal and guest and
just need minor tuning. To avoid crowding the backend API, introduce a
few 'if' based on the CPU being in HV mode.

Daniel Axtens 83c3fee7e7 cxl: sparse: Silence iomem warning in debugfs file creation
An IO address, tagged with __iomem, is passed to debugfs_create_file
as private data. This requires that it be cast to void *. The cast
drops the __iomem annotation and so creates a sparse warning:

  drivers/misc/cxl/debugfs.c:51:57: warning: cast removes address space of expression

The address space marker is added back in the file operations
(fops_io_u64).

Silence the warning with __force.

Ian Munsie f204e0b8ce cxl: Driver code for powernv PCIe based cards for userspace access
This is the core of the cxl driver.

It adds support for using cxl cards in the powernv environment only (ie POWER8
bare metal). It allows access to cxl accelerators by userspace using the
/dev/cxl/afuM.N char devices.

The kernel driver has no knowledge of the function implemented by the
accelerator. It provides services to userspace via the /dev/cxl/afuM.N
devices. When a program opens this device and runs the start work IOCTL, the
accelerator will have coherent access to that processes memory using the same
virtual addresses. That process may mmap the device to access any MMIO space
the accelerator provides.  Also, reads on the device will allow interrupts to
be received. These services are further documented in a later patch in
Documentation/powerpc/cxl.txt.

Documentation of the cxl hardware architecture and userspace API is provided in
subsequent patches.
