Hi Robert, 

cross-post from Discord here:

@Robert Richter @Dave Jiang (Intel)  I sync'd my work on top of Roberts
v4 Part One, and then walked thru and tagged most of the 14 patch set.
Can a bunch of those go onto cxl/next now?  I saw 'hard' no's on 5,6,10
and a couple of maybes 2,3,9 but even if you omit all those, we could
get 8 patches simmering on cxl/next now.

In the collab sync you mentioned working this set. After using and
reviewing today, and seeing I'm not the first person to suggest this,
I think we would benefit from merging part of this set while you 
refine the rest.

I believe they all have plenty of tags, so it's based on what you are
willing to let fly!
