[PATCH v3 0/2] hw/mem: CXL Type-3 Volatile Memory Support |

v3: Noticed whilst chasing an unrelated kernel bug.
- Drop setting of DVSEC range base addresses. Whilst harmless,
expectation is that this will be 0 until the OS sets it (or uses
HDM decoders instead)
Based on following series (in order)
1. [PATCH v4 00/10] hw/cxl: CXL emulation cleanups and minor fixes for upstream
2. [PATCH v4 0/8] hw/cxl: RAS error emulation and injection
3. [PATCH 0/2] hw/cxl: Passthrough HDM decoder emulation

Kernel code is queued up in kernel.org cxl/next for the merge window
that just opened.
Now we have some kernel code to test this against (and it looks good)
I'd like to propose this series for upstream following 3 other series
already proposed for inclusion:
Original cover letter with minor updates.
This patches provides 2 features to the CXL Type-3 Device:
1) Volatile Memory Region Support
2) Multi-Region support (1 Volatile, 1 Persistent)
Summary of Changes per-commit:
1) Whitespace updates to docs and tests
2) Refactor CDAT DSMAS Initialization for multi-region initialization
Multi-Region and Volatile Memory support for CXL Type-3 Devices
Test and Documentation updates
The final patch in this series makes 6 major changes to the type-3
device in order to implement multi-region and volatile region support
1) The HostMemoryBackend [hostmem] has been replaced by two
[hostvmem] and [hostpmem] to store volatile and persistent memory
respectively
2) The single AddressSpace has been replaced by two AddressSpaces
[hostvmem_as] and [hostpmem_as] to map respective memdevs.
3) Each memory region size and total region are stored separately
4) The CDAT and DVSEC memory map entries have been updated:
a) if vmem is present, vmem is mapped at DPA(0)
b) if pmem is present
i) and vmem is present, pmem is mapped at DPA(vmem->size)
ii) else, pmem is mapped at DPA(0)
c) partitioning of pmem is not supported in this patch set but
has been discussed and this design should suffice.
5) Read/Write functions have been updated to access AddressSpaces
according to the mapping described in #4. Access to the
persistent address space is calculated by (dpa-vmem_len)
6) cxl-mailbox has been updated to report the respective size of
volatile and persistent memory region
