Hi Raghu,
Thanks for tidying this up! (and reporting it in the first place)
A few minor comments for v2.
A better title might be
docs/cxl: Remove incorrect CXL type 3 size parameter.

cxl-type3 memory size is read directly from the provided memory backed end
device.
Remove non existent size option.

There are two changes in here. Please split it into two patches and
add a minimal cover letter (mostly as it gives a place for people to
respond to both of them with tags etc).

Minimize the change (and definitely don't tell people to use kvm as that's
broken for
some usecases - instructions in CXL memory).
+ qemu-system-x86_64 -M q35,cxl=on -m 4G,maxmem=8G,slots=8 \
is probably the right combination (I tidied up the g / G mix whilst touching
the line.
