cxl: Rename mem to pci
As the driver has undergone development, it's become clear that the majority [entirety?] of the current functionality in mem.c is actually a layer encapsulating functionality exposed through PCI based interactions. This layer can be used either in isolation or to provide functionality for higher level functionality. CXL capabilities exist in a parallel domain to PCIe. CXL devices are enumerable and controllable via "legacy" PCIe mechanisms; however, their CXL capabilities are a superset of PCIe. For example, a CXL device may be connected to a non-CXL capable PCIe root port, and therefore will not be able to participate in CXL.mem or CXL.cache operations, but can still be accessed through PCIe mechanisms for CXL.io operations. To properly represent the PCI nature of this driver, and in preparation for introducing a new driver for the CXL.mem / HDM decoder (Host-managed Device Memory) capabilities of a CXL memory expander, rename mem.c to pci.c so that mem.c is available for this new driver. The result of the change is that there is a clear layering distinction in the driver, and a systems administrator may load only the cxl_pci module and gain access to such operations as, firmware update, offline provisioning of devices, and error collection. In addition to freeing up the file name for another purpose, there are two primary reasons this is useful, 1. Acting upon devices which don't have full CXL capabilities. This may happen for instance if the CXL device is connected in a CXL unaware part of the platform topology. 2. Userspace-first provisioning for devices without kernel driver interference. This may be useful when provisioning a new device in a specific manner that might otherwise be blocked or prevented by the real CXL mem driver.
