Subject: [PATCH v4 00/14] cxl: Address translation support, part 1: Cleanups and refactoring

This series is the first part of adding support for CXL address
translation. It contains cleanup and code refactoring in preparation
of the actual implementation that will be sent in part 2. Cleanup and
code refactoring have been split in a separate series to reduce the
number of patches of the series. Even without address translation on
top this rework improves esp. the region code, cleans it up,
simplifies it and adds debugging messages to better analyze region
creation failures:

Content of patches:

 * Patches 1: Remove else after return.

 * Patches 2-3: Cleanups and comments around cxl_hdm_decode_init().

 * Patches 4, 5: Adding and modifying helper functions.

 * Patches 6-10: Refactoring of endpoint decoder setup.

 * Patches 11-14: Adding and modifying debug messages.

v4:
 * rebased onto cxl/next, commit 0a14566be090 ("cxl/Documentation:
   Remove 'mixed' from sysfs mode doc"),
 * added tags to SOB chain,
 * reworked comments in cxl_hdm_decode_init() (dropped moving comment
   and updated patch that modifies comments) (Jonathan),
 * reworded patch description that removes duplicate call of
   cxl_find_decoder_early() (Jonathan),
 * moved some patches out of this rework and cleanup series (Dave,
   Jonathan),

v3:
 * added tags to SOB chain,
 * fixed NULL pointer dereference in cxl_find_root_decoder() (Alison),
 * updated subject line of patches that add kernel messages and
   included example log messages (Alison),

v2:
 * rebased onto cxl/next,
 * added tags to SOB chain,
 * move patches with cleanups and refactoring into this separate
   series (Dave),
 * added patch "cxl/acpi: Unify CFMWS memory log messages with SRAT
   messages" to improve CFMWS log messages,
 * renamed endpoint decoder functions to cxl_endpoint_decoder_*() (Li),
 * reworded patch description that moves find_cxl_root() and reworks
   cxl_find_root_decoder() (Terry),
 * small changes to cxl_find_root_decoder()/
   cxl_endpoint_decoder_initialize() (Jonanthan),
 * updated comment in cxl_port_find_switch_decoder() (Ben),
 * cxl_endpoint_decoder_initialize(): Simplify variable declaration
   (Jonathan, Ben),
 * cxl_find_decoder_early(): Added comment on function usage (Gregory),
 * reordered patches and reworded some of the subject for a better
   structure.
