I really like the ability to turn specific messages on and off at will. (FWIW,
__func__ is also redundant because pr_debug allows you to specify a flag to
always print the function name). While it's not very frequent events here, in
the future it likely will be and I think it can be really helpful to be able to
have that level of control.

If you want to avoid creating a new debug functionality, I'm okay with that, but
I'd really like to use pr_debug instead of dev_dbg for those messages going
forward. Once you take that step, it seems giving contributors a macro named
'cxl_debug' so they don't have to figure out when to use what, makes sense. My
mental separation is, dev_* is useful primarily for errors and initialization
debug messaging, pr_debug/trace_printk is for runtime things.

I probably should have put that in the commit message...

I was thinking for cases where driver doesn't bind, seeing the identify
information could be useful. This is one case where dev_dbg would also serve
IMO.
