Payload sizes for mailbox commands are expected to be positive values
coming from userspace. The documentation correctly describes these as
always unsigned values. The mailbox and send structures that support
the mailbox commands however, use __s32 types for the payloads.
Replace __s32 with __u32 in the mailbox and send command structures
and update usages.
Kernel users of the interface already block all negative values and
there is no known ability for userspace to have grown a dependency on
submitting negative values to the kernel. The known user of the IOCTL,
the CXL command line interface (cxl-cli) already enforces positive
size values.
A Smatch warning of a signedness uncovered this issue.

The CXL specification claims S3 support at a hardware level, but at a
system software level there are some missing pieces. Section 9.4 (CXL
2.0) rightly claims that "CXL mem adapters may need aux power to retain
memory context across S3", but there is no enumeration mechanism for the
OS to determine if a given adapter has that support. Moreover the save
state and resume image for the system may inadvertantly end up in a CXL
device that needs to be restored before the save state is recoverable.
I.e. a circular dependency that is not resolvable without a third party
save-area.
Arrange for the cxl_mem driver to fail S3 attempts. This still nominaly
allows for suspend, but requires unbinding all CXL memory devices before
the suspend to ensure the typical DRAM flow is taken. The cxl_mem unbind
flow is intended to also tear down all CXL memory regions associated
with a given cxl_memdev.
It is reasonable to assume that any device participating in a System RAM
range published in the EFI memory map is covered by aux power and
save-area outside the device itself. So this restriction can be
minimized in the future once pre-existing region enumeration support
arrives, and perhaps a spec update to clarify if the EFI memory map is
sufficent for determining the range of devices managed by
platform-firmware for S3 support.
Per Rafael, if the CXL configuration prevents suspend then it should
fail early before tasks are frozen, and mem_sleep should stop showing
'mem' as an option [1]. Effectively CXL augments the platform suspend
->valid() op since, for example, the ACPI ops are not aware of the CXL /
PCI dependencies. Given the split role of platform firmware vs OS
provisioned CXL memory it is up to the cxl_mem driver to determine if
the CXL configuration has elements that platform firmware may not be
prepared to restore.

cxl_dvsec_ranges(), the helper for enumerating the presence of an active
legacy CXL.mem configuration on a CXL 2.0 Memory Expander, is not fatal
for cxl_pci because there is still value to enable mailbox operations
even if CXL.mem operation is disabled. Recall that the reason cxl_pci
does this initialization and not cxl_mem is to preserve the useful
property (for unit testing) that cxl_mem is cxl_memdev + mmio generic,
and does not require access to a 'struct pci_dev' to issue config
cycles.
Update 'struct cxl_endpoint_dvsec_info' to carry either a positive
number of non-zero size legacy CXL DVSEC ranges, or the negative error
code from __cxl_dvsec_ranges() in its @ranges member.

When the driver finds legacy DVSEC ranges active on a CXL Memory
Expander it indicates that platform firmware is not aware of, or is
deliberately disabling common CXL 2.0 operation. In this case Linux
generally has no choice, but to leave the device alone.
The driver attempts to validate that the DVSEC range is in the EFI
memory map. Remove that logic since there is no requirement that the
BIOS publish DVSEC ranges in the EFI Memory Map.
In the future the driver will want to permanently reserve this capacity
out of the available CFMWS capacity and hide it from
request_free_mem_region(), but it serves no purpose to warn about the
range not appearing in the EFI Memory Map.

With SET_PARTITION_INFO on the exclusive_cmds list for the CXL_PMEM
driver, userspace cannot execute a set-partition command without
first unbinding the pmem driver from the device.
When userspace requests a partition change to take effect on the
next reboot this unbind requirement is unnecessarily restrictive.
The driver does not need to enforce an unbind because partitions
will not change until the next reboot. Of course, userspace still
needs to be aware that changing the size of persistent capacity
on the next reboot will result in the loss of data stored. That
can happen regardless of whether it is presently bound at the time
of issuing the set-partition command.
When userspace requests a partition change to take effect immediately,
restrictions are needed. The CXL_MEM driver currently blocks the usage
of immediate mode, making the presence of SET_PARTITION_INFO, in this
exclusive commands list, redundant.
In the future, when the CXL_MEM driver adds support for immediate
changes to device partitions it will ensure that the partition change
will not affect any active decode. That means the work will not fall
right back here, onto the CXL_PMEM driver.

User space may send the SET_PARTITION_INFO mailbox command using
the IOCTL interface. Inspect the input payload and fail if the
immediate flag is set.
This is the first instance of the driver inspecting an input payload
from user space. Assume there will be more such cases and implement
with an extensible helper.
In order for the kernel to react to an immediate partition change it
needs to assert that the change will not affect any active decode. At
a minimum this requires validating that the device is using HDM
decoders instead of the CXL DVSEC for decode, and that none of the
active HDM decoders are affected by the partition change. For now,
just fail until that support arrives.

DWARF unwind that improved the frame pointer stack in most scenarios.
It's expected that the unwind will fail sometimes, but this shouldn't be
reported as an error. It only works when the return address can be
determined from the contents of the link register alone.
Fix the error shown when the unwinder requires extra registers by adding
a new flag that suppresses error messages. This flag is not set in the
normal --call-graph=dwarf unwind mode so that behavior is not changed.
