Yes, and Dan is probably against returning error code.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/64d1b3e78629f_5ea6e2944@dwillia2-xfh.jf.intel.com.notmuch/

But I think returning zero is required as we don't want to interfere
with cxl device access when operating in native cxl memory error
reporting. Returning error code will basically fail cxl_pci_probe() and
thus fail to create a cxl device node.

I was thinking a single line comment as: "Return zero to not block the
communication with the cxl device when in native memory error reporting
mode".

Agree? Or anything more that needs to be added?

Thanks,
Smita
