Please consider:
create_pmem_region() creates CXL region based on region information
parsed from the Label Storage Area (LSA). This routine requires cxl root
decoder and endpoint decoder. Add cxl_find_root_decoder_by_port()
and cxl_find_free_ep_decoder() to find the root decoder and a free

Fixed it accordingly in V5

Thanks for catching this. Fixed it in V5

Is it suppose to just grab the first root decoder? If so the function should be 
match_first_root_decoder(). However, should the root decoder cover the region 
it's trying to match to? Should there be some checks to see if the region fits 
under the root decoder range? Also, should it not check the root decoder flags 
to see if it has CXL_DECODER_F_PMEM set so the CFMWS can cover PMEM?



Yes Dave, Here we should check as you suggested. Also currently its only
considering only first decoder but it should return the root decoder
associated with particular endpoint decoder. I have fixed this in V5.

Please consider:
create_pmem_region() creates CXL region based on region information
parsed from the Label Storage Area (LSA). This routine requires cxl root
decoder and endpoint decoder. Add cxl_find_root_decoder_by_port()
and cxl_find_free_ep_decoder() to find the root decoder and a free
endpoint decoder respectively.
