I finally could reproduce and root cause the issue.

I have isolated this to the operation on the qemu mem0 device, without
cxl_test involved:

root@qemu:~# cxl list
[
{
"memdev":"mem0",
"pmem_size":536870912,
"serial":0,
"host":"0000:35:00.0"
}

]

The issue causes ndctl cxl tests with the cxl_test module to fail too.

Right, I fixed this by changing the function i/f to pass @dev for the
devm operation. See below.

Yes, exactly. The mapping is in cxlds->comp_map, not port->comp_map.

That does not work as we need the RAS cap early once cxl_pci is bound.
There are multiple devices using the comp_map. For proper devm release
we need to assign different devices depending on the users. That is,
the RAS cap is released with cxl_pci driver unbinding and HDM with the
memdev release. The fix I have chosen is to expand
cxl_map_component_regs() to pass the devm device to release it
together with the device using it.

But if the HDM is not present, a -ENODEV is still returned?
cxl_switch_port_probe() does not fail then.

Please take a look at the cxl_map_component_regs() update in v9. We
will send it out today. The changes compared to v8 are
straightforward.
