Merge tag 'cxl-for-6.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cxl/cxl

Pull CXL updates from Dave Jiang:
 "The changes include adding poison injection support, fixing CXL access
  coordinates when onlining CXL memory, and delaing the enumeration of
  downstream switch ports for CXL hierarchy to ensure that the CXL link
  is established at the time of enumeration to address a few issues
  observed on AMD and Intel platforms.

  Misc changes:
   - Use str_plural() instead of open code for emitting strings.
   - Use str_enabled_disabled() instead of ternary operator
   - Fix emit of type resource_size_t argument for
     validate_region_offset()

     and CXL

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 reStructuredText 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.
