CXL driver synchronizes the PSL timebase with the CAPP during initialization. If it can't synchronize, then the driver currently fails and the cxl adapter is not usable. That behavior is a bit extreme for the time being, as some adapters are known to have troubles syncing their PSL timebase and there are no known use of it.
Introduce a psl_timebase module parameter to control whether PSL timebase is required or not. Default is to allow initializaton even if syncing failed. Default behavior will be changed when current issues with some cxl adapters are resolved.
