Can the paths to return _MIXED be simplified here?

I'm concerned about _DEAD.
At first I was going to say name these as CXL_REGION_MODE_*, but it's
pretty obvious that these are mode words...except for DEAD. Is that 
an actual mode or is it some type of status? I don't think I see it
used yet.

Wondering about renaming RAM and PMEM caps as 'static'.
They are changeable via set partition commands.
