[PATCH v5 14/27] vfio/pci: Provide an opt-out for the CXL Type-2 extensions

[mhonap]

From: Manish Honap <mhonap@xxxxxxxxxx>

Let an admin or a variant driver keep the CXL Type-2 extensions out of
the path and drive the device as plain vfio-pci. Add a
vfio_pci.disable_cxl module parameter, and let a variant driver set
vdev->disable_cxl in its own init callback for per-device control. The
parameter is built only when the CXL provider is configured.
