Pull compute express link (cxl) fixes from Dan Williams:
 "Several fixes for driver startup regressions that landed during the
  merge window as well as some older bugs.

  The regressions were due to a lack of testing with what the CXL
  specification calls Restricted CXL Host (RCH) topologies compared to
  the testing with Virtual Host (VH) CXL topologies. A VH topology is
  typical PCIe while RCH topologies map CXL endpoints as Root Complex
  Integrated endpoints. The impact is some driver crashes on startup.

  This merge window also added compatibility for range registers (the
  mechanism that CXL 1.1 defined for mapping memory) to treat them like
  HDM decoders (the mechanism that CXL 2.0 defined for mapping
  Host-managed Device Memory). That work collided with the new region
  enumeration code that was tested with CXL 2.0 setups, and fails with
  crashes at startup.

  Lastly, the DOE (Data Object Exchange) implementation for retrieving
  an ACPI-like data table from CXL devices is being reworked for v6.4.
  Several fixes fell out of that work that are suitable for v6.3.

  All of this has been in linux-next for a while, and all reported
  issues [1] have been addressed.

  Summary:

   - Fix several issues with region enumeration in RCH topologies that
     can trigger crashes on driver startup or shutdown.

   - Fix CXL DVSEC range register compatibility versus region
     enumeration that leads to startup crashes

   - Fix CDAT endiannes handling

   - Fix multiple buffer handling boundary conditions

   - Fix Data Object Exchange (DOE) workqueue usage vs
     CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS warn splats"

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.
