Lukas Wunner f960e57dca cxl/pci: Rightsize CDAT response allocation
Jonathan notes that cxl_cdat_get_length() and cxl_cdat_read_table()
allocate 32 dwords for the DOE response even though it may be smaller.

In the case of cxl_cdat_get_length(), only the second dword of the
response is of interest (it contains the length).  So reduce the
allocation to 2 dwords and let DOE discard the remainder.

In the case of cxl_cdat_read_table(), a correctly sized allocation for
the full CDAT already exists.  Let DOE write each table entry directly
into that allocation.  There's a snag in that the table entry is
preceded by a Table Access Response Header (1 dword, CXL 3.0 table 8-14).
Save the last dword of the previous table entry, let DOE overwrite it
with the header of the next entry and restore it afterwards.

The resulting CDAT is preceded by 4 unavoidable useless bytes.  Increase
the allocation size accordingly.

The buffer overflow check in cxl_cdat_read_table() becomes unnecessary
because the remaining bytes in the allocation are tracked in "length",
which is passed to DOE and limits how many bytes it writes to the
allocation.  Additionally, cxl_cdat_read_table() bails out if the DOE
response is truncated due to insufficient space.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
