The arbiter of a Host-managed Device Memory (HDM) region is an "HDM Decoder". An HDM decoder is defined in the Compute eXpress Link (CXL) specification as hardware that handles the routing of memory ranges controlled by CXL devices in a linear, or interleaved fashion. HDM decoders are not specific to CXL devices and therefore live in a different part of the MMIO space for CXL *components*. The CXL component registers are found and mapped in a similar way to the device registers and so a lot of this series is refactoring to try to easily add the new register block type. Management of HDM decoders is not handled in this series. This work is the foundation for the eventual integration with libnvdimm. That integration will enable CXL persistent and volatile capacities to be managed by Linux and gain use of all the related existing infrastructure. These patches go on top of the reworks and improvements recently submitted by Dan [1].
