Ah yea I missed that in my rework sorry.

Much better.  Done throughout.

Done.

But what do we do if it does not match?  Returning an error will be
ignored by the cxl_pci_driver_exit() and if we enforce the singleton in
the registration I don't see a lot of room for error here.

Ok I'll change it.  Smita requested the use of pragma but keeping the
__packed is redundant right now.  And I'll go with your preference of
__packed.
