cxl_dpa_alloc() is a hard coded nest of assumptions around PMEM allocations being distinct from RAM allocations in specific ways when in practice the allocation rules are only relative to DPA partition index. The rules for cxl_dpa_alloc() are: - allocations can only come from 1 partition - if allocating at partition-index-N, all free space in partitions less than partition-index-N must be skipped over Use the new 'struct cxl_dpa_partition' array to support allocation with an arbitrary number of DPA partitions on the device. A follow-on patch can go further to cleanup 'enum cxl_decoder_mode' concept and supersede it with looking up the memory properties from partition metadata. Until then cxl_part_mode() temporarily bridges code that looks up partitions by @cxled->mode.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
