I've finally made some serious headway integrating v17 into my
environment to better comment on this flow.

I'm running into what I'm seeing as a fundamental issue of resource
ownership between a device driver, and the CXL driver core.  I'm having
a hard time trying to resolve this.

If I do the above and call cxl_map_component_regs() with a valid CAP_ID
(RAS, HDM, etc.), that eventually calls devm_cxl_iomap_block() from
inside the CXL core drivers.  That calls devm_request_mem_region(), and
this is where things get interesting.

If my device happens to land the CXL component registers inside of a
BAR that has other items needed by my Type 2 device's driver, then we
have a conflict.  My driver and the CXL core drivers cannot hold the
same regions mapped.  i.e. I can't call pci_request_region() on my BAR,
and then call the above.  One loses, and then we all lose.

Curious if you have any ideas how we can improve this?

Cheers,
-PJ
