	The in-kernel 'library' API can be called by drivers to help interaction with an IBM XSL on a POWER9 system. The cxllib_handle_fault() API is used to handle memory fault. All memory pages of the specified buffer have to be handled but under certain conditions,the last page may not be touched, and the address the adapter is trying to access is never sent to the kernel for resolution. This patch reworks start address of the loop with an address aligned on the page size. In this context, the last page is not missed.

2017-07-03	cxl: Export library to support IBM XSL	Christophe Lombard
	This patch exports a in-kernel 'library' API which can be called by other drivers to help interacting with an IBM XSL on a POWER9 system. The XSL (Translation Service Layer) is a stripped down version of the PSL (Power Service Layer) used in some cards such as the Mellanox CX5. Like the PSL, it implements the CAIA architecture, but has a number of differences, mostly in it's implementation dependent registers. The XSL also uses a special DMA cxl mode, which uses a slightly different init sequence for the CAPP and PHB.
