[PATCH] cxl: Allow PSL timebase to not sync

CXL driver synchronizes the PSL timebase with the CAPP during
initialization. If it can't synchronize, then the driver currently
fails and the cxl adapter is not usable. That behavior is a bit
extreme for the time being, as some adapters are known to have
troubles syncing their PSL timebase and there are no known use of it.
Introduce a psl_timebase module parameter to control whether PSL
timebase is required or not. Default is to allow initializaton even if
syncing failed.
Default behavior will be changed when current issues with some cxl
adapters are resolved.
