cxl/memdev: Fix sanitize vs decoder setup locking
The sanitize operation is destructive and the expectation is that the device is unmapped while in progress. The current implementation does a lockless check for decoders being active, but then does nothing to prevent decoders from racing to be committed. Introduce state tracking to resolve this race. This incidentally cleans up unpriveleged userspace from triggering mmio read cycles by spinning on reading the 'security/state' attribute. Which at a minimum is a waste since the kernel state machine can cache the completion result. Lastly cxl_mem_sanitize() was mistakenly marked EXPORT_SYMBOL() in the original implementation, but an export was never required.
