Factor the lookup into cxl_port_get_uport_pci_dev() and return a referenced

We don't need that here, so maybe briefly state that you will do in
new users coming shortly.

Assuming this is the only instance (as Ben asks) and you do
what I suggested about not having the good path follow a goto,
then

read_cdat_data() was the only existing instance I found. The helper now has two new users in the HDM cache-update paths later in the series.

In v14 I duplicated pci_dev_put() at the early-return and error paths, so the successful path no longer follows a cleanup goto. I also added your Reviewed-by tag.
