Implement support for CXL 3.0 8.2.9.8.5.1 Sanitize. This is done by
adding a security/sanitize' memdev sysfs file to trigger the operation
and extend the status file to make it poll(2)-capable for completion.
Unlike all other background commands, this is the only operation that
is special and monopolizes the device for long periods of time.
In addition to the traditional pmem security requirements, all regions
must also be offline in order to perform the operation. This permits
avoiding explicit global CPU cache management, relying instead on the
implict cache management when a region transitions between
CXL_CONFIG_ACTIVE and CXL_CONFIG_COMMIT.
The expectation is that userspace can use it such as:
cxl disable-memdev memX
echo 1 > /sys/bus/cxl/devices/memX/security/sanitize
cxl wait-sanitize memX
cxl enable-memdev memX

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.
