Looks right to me.  The entryhandle is a field in the upper 16 bits of the
first dword defined in Read Entry Response table in the CXL spec and also
used in the request of the next entry (which is more or less a CDAT structure)
Two magic values.
0 -  CDAT header (request only - can't be returned)
0xFFFF - No more entries.

As we are reading the whole table, we write 0 to first request and from there
on use the value returned in the response for the next request until we see
0xFFFF and stop.

Note IIRC the meaning of entry handle was clarified in a CXL 2.0 errata as
was a bit ambiguous in the original spec (we had two QEMU implementations
briefly and they did different things :)
