Type2 devices have some Type3 functionalities as optional like an mbox
or an hdm decoder, and CXL core needs a way to know what an CXL accelerator
implements.

Add a new field to cxl_dev_state for keeping device capabilities as
discovered during initialization. Add same field to cxl_port as registers
discovery is also used during port initialization.

Comment in thread on v8.  I don't see a reason to have any specific
bitmap length - just use a final entry in the enum without a value set
to let us know how long it actually is.

Using the bit / bitmap functions should work fine without constraining
that to any particular value - also allowing for greater than 64 entries
with no need to fix up call sites etc.

As in v8. I'm not seeing any reason for this.  If you need
a bitmap to be a particular number of unsigned longs, then that
code should be fixed. (only exception being compile time constant
bitmaps where this is tricky to do!)

Obviously I replied with that to v8 after you posted this
so time machines aside no way you could have acted on it yet.
