Hi Alison,

Thanks for the feedbacks.
We had check on cxlfs before
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250122235159.2716036-5-dave.jiang@xxxxxxxxx/
but removed because of the following comment.

Not in the caller. Had check for num_features here before in cxl_get_feature_entry()
as seen in the above link.
