This seems confused because the @cxlmd argument is always an endpoint.
The dynamic state is whether that endpoint is currently connected to the
CXL HDM decode hierarchy, or not.

That state changes relative to whether @cxlmd is bound to the cxl_mem
driver. So the above check is also racy.

I think this wants to be:

	guard(device)(&cxlmd->dev);
	if (!cxlmd->endpoint)
		return -ENXIO;

I think this cxl_put_root_decoder() requirement is manageable for the
for the initial merge, but it is not something to commit to long term.
The device's HPA freespace and CXL HDM should be freed at cxl_mem detach
time, but that will require more infrastructure.

The reference does not stop the root decoder from being unregistered and
it is clearly broken to allow it to be unregistered while drivers have
pending allocations.
