Inject poison using QMP command cxl-inject-poison to add an entry to the
poison list.
For now, the poison is not returned CXL.mem reads, but only via the
mailbox command Get Poison List. So a normal memory read to an address
that is on the poison list will not yet result in a synchronous exception
(and similar for partial cacheline writes).
That is left for a future patch.
See CXL rev 3.0, sec 8.2.9.8.4.1 Get Poison list (Opcode 4300h)

To inject poison using QMP (telnet to the QMP port)
{ "execute": "qmp_capabilities" }
{ "execute": "cxl-inject-poison",
"arguments": {
"path": "/machine/peripheral/cxl-pmem0",
"start": 2048,
"length": 256
}
}
Adjusted to select a device on your machine.
Note that the poison list supported is kept short enough to avoid the
complexity of state machine that is needed to handle the MORE flag.
