[PATCH RFC v4 0/6] efi/cxl-cper: Report CPER CXL component events through trace events

Series status/background
========================

This RFC should be very close to done but I'm still working on getting a
system to test on. Therefore, the CPER code remains compile tested
only. The modified event log code continues to pass cxl-test.

Cover letter
============

CXL Component Events, as defined by EFI 2.10 Section N.2.14, wrap a
mostly CXL event payload in an EFI Common Platform Error Record (CPER)
record. If a device is configured for firmware first CXL event records
are not sent directly to the host.

The CXL sub-system uniquely has DPA to HPA translation information. It
also already has event format tracing. Restructure the code to make
sharing the data between CPER/event logs most efficient. Then send the
CXL CPER records to the CXL sub-system for processing.

With event logs the events interrupt the driver directly. In the EFI
case events are wrapped with device information which needs to be
matched with memdev devices. A number of alternatives were considered
to match the memdev with the CPER record. The most robust was to find
the PCI device via Bus, Device, Function and match it to the memdev
driver data.

CPER records are identified with GUID's while CXL event logs contain
UUID's. The UUID is reported for all events. While the UUID is
redundant for the known events the UUID's are already used by rasdaemon.
To keep compatibility UUIDs are injected for CPER records based on the
record type.
