"Type 3" to indicate that this is a proper adjective that can be
looked up in the spec and to match the usage there.
The r1.1 spec I have doesn't mention "mailbox". Is that also
something defined in the 2.0 spec?
A URL or similar citation for the spec would be nice somewhere.

Unused, maybe move it to the patch that adds the use?

I assume we'll refactor and move this into the PCI core after we
resolve the several places this is needed. When we do that, the
vendor would be passed in, so maybe we should do that here to make it
simpler to move this to the PCI core.

Interesting naming: apparently when cxl_bus_prepared() returns a
non-zero ("true") value, it is actually *not* prepared?

Unused. And [4/9] removes it before it's *ever* used :)

The SPDX rules are a bit arcane and annoyingly hard to grep for, but
I found them in Documentation/process/license-rules.rst

I assume these will go in include/linux/pci_ids.h (PCI_CLASS_...) and
include/uapi/linux/pci_regs.h (the rest) eventually, after we get the
merge issues sorted out. But if they're only used in cxl/mem.c, I'd
put them there for now.
