Hi Smita,

Thanks for the updates Smita!

About those "long-standing conflicts": In the next rev, can you resurrect,
or recreate the issues list that this set is addressing. It's been a
long and winding road with several handoffs (me included) and it'll help
keep the focus.

Hotplug works :)  Auto region comes up, we tear it down and can recreate it,
in place, because the soft reserved resource is gone (no longer occupying
the CXL Window and causing recreate to fail.)

!CONFIG_CXL_REGION works :) All resources go directly to DAX.

The scenario that is failing is handoff to DAX after region assembly
failure. (Dan reminded me to check that today.) That is mostly related
to Patch4, so I'll respond there.
