cxl/trace: Properly initialize cxl_poison region name
[ Upstream commit 6c871260965255a1c142fb77ccee58b172d1690b ]
The TP_STRUCT__entry that gets assigned the region name, or an
empty string if no region is present, is erroneously initialized
to the cxl_region pointer. It needs to be properly initialized
otherwise it's length is wrong and garbage chars can appear in
the kernel trace output: /sys/kernel/tracing/trace
The bad initialization was due in part to a naming conflict with
the parameter: struct cxl_region *region. The field 'region' is
already exposed externally as the region name, so changing that
to something logical, like 'region_name' is not an option. Instead
rename the internal only struct cxl_region to the commonly used
'cxlr'.
Impact is that tooling depending on that trace data can miss
picking up a valid event when searching by region name. The
TP_printk() output, if enabled, does emit the correct region
names in the dmesg log.
This was found during testing of the cxl-list option to report
media-errors for a region.
