cxl: Remove racy attempt to force EEH invocation in reset
commit 9d8e2767 upstream. cxl_reset currently PERSTs the slot, and then repeatedly tries to read MMIO space in order to kick off EEH. There are 2 problems with this: it's unnecessary, and it's racy. It's unnecessary because the PERST will bring down the PHB link. That will be picked up by the CAPP, which will send out an HMI. Skiboot, noticing an HMI from the CAPP, will send an OPAL notification to the kernel, which will trigger EEH recovery. It's also racy: the EEH recovery triggered by the CAPP will eventually cause the MMIO space to have its mapping invalidated and the pointer NULLed out. This races with our attempt to read the MMIO space. This is causing OOPSes in testing. Simply drop all the attempts to force EEH detection, and trust that Skiboot will send the notification and that we'll act on it. The Skiboot code to send the EEH notification has been in Skiboot for as long as CAPP recovery has been supported, so we don't need to worry about breaking obscure setups with ancient firmware.
