You shouldn't need this. Your device class can inherit from
the CT3 base class by setting its .parent to TYPE_CXL_TYPE3:

static const TypeInfo my_cxl_types[] = {
     {
         .name           = TYPE_MY_CXL_DEVICE_X,
         .parent         = TYPE_CXL_TYPE3,
         .class_init     = dev_x_class_init,
     },
     {
         .name           = TYPE_MY_CXL_DEVICE_Y,
         .parent         = TYPE_CXL_TYPE3,
         .class_init     = dev_y_class_init,
     }
};

You can see some documentation about QOM here:
https://qemu-project.gitlab.io/qemu/devel/qom.html
But still you'll have to look at examples in the tree.
