From: PJ Waskiewicz <ppwaskie@xxxxxxxxxx>
Currently, Type 3 CXL devices (CXL.mem) can train using host CXL
drivers on Emerald Rapids systems. However, on some production
systems from some vendors, a buggy BIOS exists that improperly
populates the ACPI => PCI mappings. This leads to the cxl_acpi
driver to fail probe when it cannot find the root port's _UID, in
order to look up the device's CXL attributes in the CEDT.
Add a bit more of a descriptive message that the lookup failure
could be a bad BIOS, rather than just "failed."
