From: Vaibhav Jain vaibhav@linux.ibm.com
On Power-8 the AFU attr prefault_mode tried to improve storage fault performance by prefaulting process segments. However Power-9 radix mode doesn't have Storage-Segments and prefaulting Pages is too fine grained.
So this patch updates prefault_mode_store() to not allow any other value apart from CXL_PREFAULT_NONE when radix mode is enabled.
