cxl/pci: Introduce cdevm_file_operations
In preparation for moving cxl_memdev allocation to the core, introduce cdevm_file_operations to coordinate file operations shutdown relative to driver data release. The motivation for moving cxl_memdev allocation to the core (beyond better file organization of sysfs attributes in core/ and drivers in cxl/), is that device lifetime is longer than module lifetime. The cxl_pci module should be free to come and go without needing to coordinate with devices that need the text associated with cxl_memdev_release() to stay resident. The move will fix a use after free bug when looping driver load / unload with CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE=y. Another motivation for passing in file_operations to the core cxl_memdev creation flow is to allow for alternate drivers, like unit test code, to define their own ioctl backends.
