Robert Richter af74daf916 cxl: Enable AMD Zen5 address translation using ACPI PRMT
Add AMD Zen5 support for address translation.

Zen5 systems may be configured to use 'Normalized addresses'. Then,
host physical addresses (HPA) are different from their system physical
addresses (SPA). The endpoint has its own physical address space and
an incoming HPA is already converted to the device's physical address
(DPA). Thus it has interleaving disabled and CXL endpoints are
programmed passthrough (DPA == HPA).

Host Physical Addresses (HPAs) need to be translated from the endpoint
to its CXL host bridge, esp. to identify the endpoint's root decoder
and region's address range. ACPI Platform Runtime Mechanism (PRM)
provides a handler to translate the DPA to its SPA. This is documented
in:

 AMD Family 1Ah Models 00h–0Fh and Models 10h–1Fh
 ACPI v6.5 Porting Guide, Publication # 58088
 https://www.amd.com/en/search/documentation/hub.html

With Normalized Addressing this PRM handler must be used to translate
an HPA of an endpoint to its SPA.

Do the following to implement AMD Zen5 address translation:

Introduce a new file core/atl.c to handle ACPI PRM specific address
translation code. Naming is loosely related to the kernel's AMD
Address Translation Library (CONFIG_AMD_ATL) but implementation does
not depend on it, nor it is vendor specific. Use Kbuild and Kconfig
options respectively to enable the code depending on architecture and
platform options.

AMD Zen5 systems support the ACPI PRM CXL Address Translation firmware
call (see ACPI v6.5 Porting Guide, Address Translation - CXL DPA to
System Physical Address). Firmware enables the PRM handler if the
platform has address translation implemented. Check firmware and
kernel support of ACPI PRM using the specific GUID. On success enable
address translation by setting up the earlier introduced root port
callback, see function cxl_prm_setup_translation(). Setup is done in
cxl_setup_prm_address_translation(), it is the only function that
needs to be exported. For low level PRM firmware calls, use the ACPI
framework.

Identify the region's interleaving ways by inspecting the address
ranges. Also determine the interleaving granularity using the address
translation callback. Note that the position of the chunk from one
interleaving block to the next may vary and thus cannot be considered
constant. Address offsets larger than the interleaving block size
cannot be used to calculate the granularity. Thus, probe the
granularity using address translation for various HPAs in the same
interleaving block.

Linux kernel
============

The Linux kernel is the core of any Linux operating system. It manages hardware,
system resources, and provides the fundamental services for all other software.

Quick Start
-----------

* Report a bug: See Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst
* Get the latest kernel: https://kernel.org
* Build the kernel: See Documentation/admin-guide/quickly-build-trimmed-linux.rst
* Join the community: https://lore.kernel.org/

Essential Documentation
-----------------------

All users should be familiar with:

* Building requirements: Documentation/process/changes.rst
* Code of Conduct: Documentation/process/code-of-conduct.rst
