Error log:

                 from include/trace/define_trace.h:102,

drivers/cxl/core/./trace.h:383:1: error: macro "__assign_str" passed 2 arguments, but takes just 1

This is with the patch applied on top of v6.9-8410-gff2632d7d08e.
So far that seems to be the only build failure.
Introduced with commit 6aec00139d3a8 ("cxl/core: Add region info to
cxl_general_media and cxl_dram events"). Guess we'll see more of those
towards the end of the commit window.
