sfc: add multipf support

This commit introduces multipf support by using the CXL core accelerator API
to link non-PF0 PFs to the CXL region of their associated PF0. It obtains
the CXL HPA region and maps it using an offset based on the PF index.

[Severity: High]
Does this code query the correct PCI slot? The devfn variable is assigned the
result of PCI_FUNC(pci_dev->devfn), which extracts only the 3-bit function
number. Passing this isolated function number into PCI_SLOT() will always
yield 0 since it shifts right by 3.

This means non-PF0 functions will query slot 0 instead of their actual PCI
slot. If the NIC is located in a slot other than 0 and another CXL-enabled
NIC is in slot 0, would this cause the driver to link its non-PF0 function
to the wrong NIC's CXL region, bypassing mutual exclusion by taking the wrong
device's lock in cxl_get_range_and_link()?

[Severity: High]
Is the error check here inverted? If cxl_get_range_and_link() successfully
finds a region (returning 0), this condition evaluates to true and aborts
with -EPROBE_DEFER.

Conversely, if it fails (e.g., due to a missing region), it returns an error
code which evaluates as true, meaning the condition fails and the code falls
through. This leaves the cxl_pio_range stack variable uninitialized.

[Severity: High]
Following up on the inverted check above, if cxl_get_range_and_link() fails
and we fall through, won't we pass the uninitialized cxl_pio_range stack
variable by value to cxl_map()?

Looking at cxl_map() in this same file:

cxl_map(...) {
    ...
    cxl_pio_pf_start = cxl_pio_range.start + ...;
    cxl->ctpio_cxl = ioremap_wc(cxl_pio_pf_start, ...);
    ...
}

Could this result in ioremap_wc() mapping arbitrary physical memory based
on the uninitialized stack data?
