Bug Description

This is a feature for capi flash (cxlflash) inside the kernel.

We have upstreamed the below 38 patches but they are not in the maintainers tree yet. I anticipate them to be available by Friday this week. I dont want to miss the boat for 18.04 feature code cutoff. Can you please suggest if I should submit these patches as SAUCE patches or can it be pulled from mainstream once maintainer pulls it in ?

There are significant conflicts when trying to apply these patches to 4.15, likely due to changes in 4.16. Can you advise which additional patches are needed? Thanks!

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed-bionic'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
