A CXL component is a hardware entity that implements CXL component
registers from the CXL 2.0 spec (8.2.3). Currently these represent 3
general types.
1. Host Bridge
2. Ports (root, upstream, downstream)
3. Devices (memory, other)
A CXL component can be conceptually thought of as a PCIe device with
extra functionality when enumerated and enabled. For this reason, CXL
does here, and will continue to add on to existing PCI code paths.
Host bridges will typically need to be handled specially and so they can
implement this newly introduced interface or not. All other components
should implement this interface. Implementing this interface allows the
core PCI code to treat these devices as special where appropriate.
