[PATCH v3 02/41] cxlflash: Avoid clobbering context control register value

From: "Matthew R. Ochs" <mrochs at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The SISLite specification originally defined the context control
register with a single field of bits to represent the LISN and
also stipulated that the register reset value be 0. The cxlflash
driver took advantage of this when programming the LISN for the
master contexts via an unconditional write - no other bits were
preserved.

When unmap support was added, SISLite was updated to define bit
0 of the context control register as a way for the AFU to notify
the context owner that unmap operations were supported. Thus the
assumptions under which the register is setup changed and the
existing unconditional write is clobbering the unmap state for
master contexts. This is presently not an issue due to the order
in which the context control register is programmed in relation to
the unmap bit being queried but should be addressed to avoid a
future regression in the event this code is moved elsewhere.

To remedy this issue, preserve the bits when programming the LISN
field in the context control register. Since the LISN will now be
programmed using a read value, assert that the initial state of the
LISN field is as described in SISLite (0).
