cxl/pci: Get rid of pointer arithmetic reading CDAT table
Reading the CDAT table using DOE requires a Table Access Response Header in addition to the CDAT entry. In current implementation this has caused offsets with sizeof(__le32) to the actual buffers. This led to hardly readable code and even bugs. E.g., see fix of devm_kfree() in read_cdat_data(): commit c65efe3685f5 ("cxl/cdat: Free correct buffer on checksum error") Rework code to avoid calculations with sizeof(__le32). Introduce struct cdat_doe_rsp for this which contains the Table Access Response Header and a variable payload size for various data structures afterwards to access the CDAT table and its CDAT Data Structures without recalculating buffer offsets.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
