Hi Shiju,

This helper is basically wrapping the existing helper
cxl_num_decoders_committed(port) so that you can start from a cxlmd.
Other callers of cxl_num_decoders_committed() do similar work, ie 
find the port, confirm an endpoint, then call it. I don't think
it's done enough to warrant a helper for all callers. (but others
may disagree and ask for that)

This patchset does this work a few times, so a helper makes sense
here. The part I don't get is why it is placed in the region driver,
requiring it to be stubbed out when region driver is not present.

cxl_num_decoders_committed() is part of the cxl/core and is 
defined in port.c.

Long way of asking, would it work to just add a helper to 
core/memfeatures.c and use it within?

The name could use an update. cxl_are_decoders_committed(cxlmd) is
a stretch because a cxlmd does not have decoders. That naming made
sense for 'cxl_num_decoders_committed(port) because a port has
decoders, a memdev does not.
