In preparation for consolidating all DPA partition information into an array of DPA metadata, introduce helpers that hide the layout of the current data. I.e. make the eventual replacement of ->ram_res, ->pmem_res, ->ram_perf, and ->pmem_perf with a new DPA metadata array a no-op for code paths that consume that information, and reduce the noise of follow-on patches. The end goal is to consolidate all DPA information in 'struct cxl_dev_state', but for now the helpers just make it appear that all DPA metadata is relative to @cxlds. As the conversion to generic partition metadata walking is completed, these helpers will naturally be eliminated, or reduced in scope.

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.
