CXL core is growing, and it's already arguably unmanageable. To support
future growth, move core functionality to a new directory and rename the
file to represent just bus support. Future work will remove non-bus
functionality.

Note that mem.h is renamed to cxlmem.h to avoid a namespace collision
with the global ARCH=um mem.h header.

Not a fix...

I'm guessing this got picked up on the basis of the Reported-by: tag?
I think that was added for a minor tweak as this went through review rather
than referring to the whole patch.

Or possibly because it was a precursor to the fix in the next patch.

Hmm.  Ben, Dan, does it make sense for these two to go into stable?

Jonathan

As of now, no, but having this will make future fixes much easier to cherry

It was picked because the next patch depends on it. I'll just drop
both if you don't want the next one. Thanks!
