Do you mean testing CXL memory in kexec/kdump? No, we can't. Kexec/kdump
test cases basically is system testing, not unit test or module test. It
needs run system and then jump to 2nd kernel, vm can be used but it
can't cover many cases existing only on baremetal. Currenly, Redhat's
CKI is heavily relied on to test them, however I am not sure if system
with CXL support is available in our LAB.

Not sure if I got you right.
