Steven, Do you think that will land in 6.9?

Jonathan,
Again thanks for the testing! However, Dan and I just discussed this and
he has an uneasy feeling about going forward with this for 6.8 final.
If we revert the following patch I can squash this fix and wait for the
tp_printk() fix to land in 6.9 and resubmit.
Dan here is the patch which backs out the actual bug:
Fixes: 671a794c33c6 ("acpi/ghes: Process CXL Component Events")
Thanks everyone,
Ira
