How about an update to reflect all your recent goodness and updated
intentions?

I see DavidL updated along with his patches :)

I made a couple of changes and am including the entire file in
the patch for your review convenience.

I think 2? May be issues if there is memory hole.

 Compute Express Link Subsystem Maturity Map
 ===========================================
 
 The Linux CXL subsystem tracks the dynamic `CXL specification
 <https://computeexpresslink.org/cxl-specification-landing-page>`_ that
 continues to respond to new use cases with new features, capability
 updates and fixes. At any given point some aspects of the subsystem are
 more mature than others. While the periodic pull requests summarize the
 `work being incorporated each merge window
 <https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cxl/?q=s%3APULL+s%3ACXL+tc%3Atorvalds+NOT+s%3ARe>`_,
 those do not always convey progress relative to a starting point and a
 future end goal.
 
 What follows is a coarse breakdown of the subsystem's major
 responsibilities along with a maturity score. The expectation is that
 the change-history of this document provides an overview summary of the
 subsystem maturation over time.
 
 The maturity scores are:
 
 - [3] Mature: Work in this area is complete and no changes on the horizon.
   Note that this score can regress from one kernel release to the next
   based on new test results or end user reports.
 
 - [2] Stabilizing: Major functionality operational, common cases are
   mature, but known corner cases are still a work in progress.
 
 - [1] Initial: Capability that has exited the Proof of Concept phase, but
   may still have significant gaps to close and fixes to apply as real
   world testing occurs.
 
 - [0] Known gap: Feature is on a medium to long term horizon to
   implement.  If the specification has a feature that does not even have
   a '0' score in this document, there is a good chance that no one in
   the linux-cxl@vger.kernel.org community has started to look at it.
 
 - X: Out of scope for kernel enabling, or kernel enabling not required
 
 Feature and Capabilities
 ========================
 
 Enumeration / Provisioning
 --------------------------
 All of the fundamental enumeration an object model of the subsystem is
 in place, but there are several corner cases that are pending closure.

 RAS
 ---
 In many ways CXL can be seen as a standardization of what would normally
 be handled by custom EDAC drivers. The open development here is
 mainly caused by the enumeration corner cases above.
 
 * [3] Component events (OS)
 * [2] Component events (FFM)
 * [1] Endpoint protocol errors (OS)
 * [1] Endpoint protocol errors (FFM)
 * [0] Switch protocol errors (OS)
 * [1] Switch protocol errors (FFM)
 * [2] DPA->HPA Address translation
 
     * [1] XOR Interleave translation
       (see CXL Window Enumeration)
 
 * [1] Memory Failure coordination
 * [0] Scrub control
 * [2] ACPI error injection EINJ
 
   * [0] EINJ v2
   * [X] Compliance DOE
 
 * [2] Native error injection

 Details
 =======
 
 .. _extended-linear:
 
 * **Extended-linear memory-side cache**: An HMAT proposal to enumerate the presence of a
   memory-side cache where the cache capacity extends the SRAT address
   range capacity. `See the ECN
   <https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cxl/6650e4f835a0e_195e294a8@dwillia2-mobl3.amr.corp.intel.com.notmuch/>`_
   for more details:
 
 .. _rch-link-status:
 
 * **RCH Link Status**: RCH (Restricted CXL Host) topologies, end up
   hiding some standard registers like PCIe Link Status / Capabilities in
   the CXL RCRB (Root Complex Register Block).
 
 .. _background-commands:
 
 * **Background commands**: The CXL background command mechanism is
   awkward as the single slot is monopolized potentially indefinitely by
   various commands. A `cancel on conflict
   <http://lore.kernel.org/r/66035c2e8ba17_770232948b@dwillia2-xfh.jf.intel.com.notmuch>`_
   facility is needed to make sure the kernel can ensure forward progress
   of priority commands.
