cxl/core: Fix potential payload size confusion in cxl_mem_get_poison()
A recent change to cxl_mem_get_records_log() [1] highlighted a subtle
nuance of looping calls to cxl_internal_send_cmd(), i.e. that
cxl_internal_send_cmd() modifies the 'size_out' member of the @mbox_cmd
argument. That mechanism is useful for communicating underflow, but it
is unwanted when reusing @mbox_cmd for a subsequent submission. It turns
out that cxl_xfer_log() avoids this scenario by always redefining
@mbox_cmd each iteration.
Update cxl_mem_get_records_log() and cxl_mem_get_poison() to follow the
same style as cxl_xfer_log(), i.e. re-define @mbox_cmd each iteration.
The cxl_mem_get_records_log() change is just a style fixup, but the
cxl_mem_get_poison() change is a potential fix, per Alison [2]:
Poison list retrieval can hit this case if the MORE flag is set and
a follow on read of the list delivers more records than the previous
read. ie. device gives one record, sets the _MORE flag, then gives 5.
Not an urgent fix since this behavior has not been seen in the wild,
but worth tracking as a fix.
