[PATCH 1/2] cxlflash: Verify problem state area is mapped before notifying shutdown

If an EEH or some other hard error occurs while the
adapter instance was being initialized, on the subsequent
shutdown of the device, the system could crash with:

[c000000f1da03b60] c0000000005eccfc pci_device_shutdown+0x6c/0x100
[c000000f1da03ba0] c0000000006d67d4 device_shutdown+0x1b4/0x2c0
[c000000f1da03c40] c0000000000ea30c kernel_restart_prepare+0x5c/0x80
[c000000f1da03c70] c0000000000ea48c kernel_restart+0x2c/0xc0
[c000000f1da03ce0] c0000000000ea970 SyS_reboot+0x1c0/0x2d0
[c000000f1da03e30] c000000000009204 system_call+0x38/0xb4

This crash is due to the AFU not being mapped when the shutdown
notification routine is called and is a regression that was inserted
recently with Commit 704c4b0ddc03 ("cxlflash: Shutdown notify support
for CXL Flash cards").

As a fix, shutdown notification should only occur when the AFU is mapped.
