Subject: [PATCH 5.16 0521/1039] cxl/core: Remove cxld_const_init in cxl_decoder_alloc()

From: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@...nel.org>

[ Upstream commit be185c2988b48db65348d94168c793bdbc8d23c3 ]

Commit 48667f676189 ("cxl/core: Split decoder setup into alloc + add")
aimed to fix a large stack frame warning but from v5 to v6, it
introduced a new instance of the warning due to allocating
cxld_const_init on the stack, which was done due to the use of const on
the nr_target member of the cxl_decoder struct. With ARCH=arm
allmodconfig minus CONFIG_KASAN:

GCC 11.2.0:

drivers/cxl/core/bus.c: In function ‘cxl_decoder_alloc’:
drivers/cxl/core/bus.c:523:1: error: the frame size of 1032 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
  523 | }
      | ^
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Clang 12.0.1:

drivers/cxl/core/bus.c:486:21: error: stack frame size of 1056 bytes in function 'cxl_decoder_alloc' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]
struct cxl_decoder *cxl_decoder_alloc(struct cxl_port *port, int nr_targets)
                    ^
1 error generated.

Revert that part of the change, which makes the stack frame of
cxl_decoder_alloc() much more reasonable.
