Thanks for the review :)

V1->V2:
    - Add an explanation of the peer model to the commit message,
      and a comment above the pnv_cxl_enable_device_hook function.
The comments are good!
Thanks :)

Should these two exports be _GPL as well?
Yep, they should be - will fix in V3.

Looks like we have several more in this file that should be _GPL as
well, but since they weren't introduced in this series (just moved from
another file) I might send a separate patch for those after this has
been merged.

Why is this being unstatic-ified? I don't see us introducing any new 
uses of it.
Left over from an earlier cut - will undo this for V3.

It looks like we don't currently use this - is this being unstatic-ised 
in view of allowing a switch back to regular mode in future?
Oops, again left over from an earlier cut (for that reason). Will undo
this for V3 - if we allow switching back in the future we can remove the
static then.
quoted
+extern void pnv_pci_release_device(struct pci_dev *pdev);
Will also remove this declaration of pnv_pci_release_device.
quoted
+extern const struct pci_controller_ops pnv_pci_ioda_controller_ops;
See applicable comments about static.
Will remove.

Cheers,
