KASAN and KFENCE detected an user-after-free in the CXL driver. This
happens in the cxl_decoder_add() fail path. KASAN prints the following
error:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in cxl_parse_cfmws (drivers/cxl/acpi.c:299)
This happens in cxl_parse_cfmws(), where put_device() is called,
releasing cxld, which is accessed later.
Use the local variables in the dev_err() instead of pointing to the
released memory. Since the dev_err() is printing a resource, change the open
coded print format to use the %pr format specifier.
Fixes: e50fe01e1f ("cxl/core: Drop ->platform_res attribute for root decoders")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
