Original cover:
Gregory's modest proposal to fix CXL cxl_mem_probe() failures due to delayed arrival of the CXL "root" infrastructure [1] prompted questions of how the existing mechanism for retrying cxl_mem_probe() could be failing.
The critical missing piece in the debug was that Gregory's setup had almost all CXL modules built-in to the kernel.
On the way to that discovery several other bugs and init-order corner cases were discovered.
The main fix is to make sure the drivers/cxl/Makefile object order supports root CXL ports being fully initialized upon cxl_acpi_probe() exit. The modular case has some similar potential holes that are fixed with MODULE_SOFTDEP() and other fix ups. Finally, an attempt to update cxl_test to reproduce the original report resulted in the discovery of a separate long standing use after free bug in cxl_region_detach().
