Add emulation for the 'Get FW Info', 'Transfer FW', and 'Activate FW' CXL mailbox commands to the cxl_test emulated memdevs to enable end-to-end unit testing of a firmware update flow. For now, only advertise an 'offline activation' capability as that is all the CXL memdev driver currently implements. Add some canned values for the serial number fields, and create a platform device sysfs knob to calculate the sha256sum of the firmware image that was received, so a unit test can compare it with the original file that was uploaded.

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 Restructured Text 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.
