ct3_realize() adds the CDAT DOE at a fixed 0x190. Since 8700ee15de the
four DVSECs take 0x90 bytes, which from 0x100 ends exactly at 0x190.
With sn= the Device Serial Number capability pushes the block to
0x10c..0x19c, and the DOE, added later, overwrites the last 12 bytes of
the Flex Bus Port DVSEC: Capability2, Control2 and Status2. Nothing
catches this -- pcie_add_capability() checks bounds, not overlap, and
the chain still walks because the DVSEC's next pointer becomes 0x190,
inside its own body. Most cxl-type3 examples in
docs/system/devices/cxl.rst set sn=.
Derive the offset from the DVSEC block instead, as cxl_upstream.c
already does. Without sn= the layout is unchanged byte for byte; with
sn= the DOE moves to 0x19c, below the AER capability at 0x200. The
type 3 device has no VMStateDescription, so its config space never
reaches the migration stream.
Fixes: 8700ee15de ("hw/cxl: Standardize all references on CXL r3.1 and minor
updates")

This feels like a qemu-stable material. I'm picking it up, but please
have qemu-stable@ in mind when the change is worth picking up for the
older stable releases. And please let me know if I should not pick it up.
Thanks,

Found while walking the extended capability chains for the UIO/SVC RFC
V2 review; independent of that series.
Tested at bde2492aac on q35 (pxb-cxl / cxl-rp / cxl-type3), dumping the
capability chain and raw config bytes from the guest with and without
sn=: the Flex Bus DVSEC keeps its full 0x20 bytes and the DOE sits at
0x19c; without sn= the bytes are identical before and after. cxl-test
12/12.
On cxl-2026-03-25-draft REG_LOC_DVSEC_LENGTH is 0x34, so the overlap is
there without sn= too; with this change the DOE lands at 0x1a0/0x1ac.
cxl-2026-01-09-draft also fixes doe_comp at 0x1b0, which would then
collide -- the two want chaining.
