Yes that makes sense. Thank you for reporting!

Here is what I came up with:
In cxl_event_config(), we get the interrupt policy
from cxl_event_get_int_policy() before cxl_event_config_msgnums().
I added a return param to cxl_event_get_int_policy() to return the
actual size:
*policy_size = mbox_cmd.size_out
The value is passed through a new input parameter for policy_size in
cxl_event_config_msgnums() so it can use the actual size.
I am working my way through the reviews and hope to post v12 soon :3
Thanks,
