The Mellanox CX4 in cxl mode uses a hybrid interrupt model, where
interrupts are routed from the networking hardware to the XSL using the
MSIX table, and from there will be transformed back into an MSIX
interrupt using the cxl style interrupts (i.e. using IVTE entries and
ranges to map a PE and AFU interrupt number to an MSIX address).
We want to hide the implementation details of cxl interrupts as much as
possible. To this end, we use a special version of the MSI setup &
teardown routines in the PHB while in cxl mode to allocate the cxl
interrupts and configure the IVTE entries in the process element.
This function does not configure the MSIX table - the CX4 card uses a
custom format in that table and it would not be appropriate to fill that
out in generic code. The rest of the functionality is similar to the
"Full MSI-X mode" described in the CAIA, and this could be easily
extended to support other adapters that use that mode in the future.
The interrupts will be associated with the default context. If the
maximum number of interrupts per context has been limited (e.g. by the
mlx5 driver), it will automatically allocate additional kernel contexts
to associate extra interrupts as required. These contexts will be
started using the same WED that was used to start the default context.

The cxl kernel API has a concept of a default context associated with
each PCI device under the virtual PHB. The Mellanox CX4 will also use
the cxl kernel API, but it does not use a virtual PHB - rather, the AFU
appears as a physical function as a peer to the networking functions.
In order to allow the kernel API to work with those networking
functions, we will need to associate a default context with them as
well. To this end, refactor the corresponding code to do this in vphb.c
and export it so that it can be called from the PHB code.

The Mellanox CX4 uses a model where the AFU is one physical function of
the device, and is used by other peer physical functions of the same
device. This will require those other devices to grab a reference on the
AFU when they are initialised to make sure that it does not go away
during their lifetime.
Move the AFU refcount functions to base.c so they can be called from
the PHB code.

This moves the current include file from cxl.h -> cxl-base.h. This current
include file is used only to pass information between the base driver that
needs to be built into the kernel and the cxl module.
This is to make way for a new include/misc/cxl.h which will
contain just the kernel API for other driver to use
