cxl: Fix allowing bogus AFU descriptors with 0 maximum processes

If the AFU descriptor of an AFU directed AFU indicates that it supports
0 maximum processes, we will accept that value and attempt to use it.
The SPA will still be allocated (with 2 pages due to another minor bug
and room for 958 processes), and when a context is allocated we will
pass the value of 0 to idr_alloc as the maximum. However, idr_alloc will
treat that as meaning no maximum and will allocate a context number and
we return a valid context.

Conceivably, this could lead to a buffer overflow of the SPA if more
than 958 contexts were allocated, however this is mitigated by the fact
that there are no known AFUs in the wild with a bogus AFU descriptor
like this, and that only the root user is allowed to flash an AFU image
to a card.

Add a check when validating the AFU descriptor to reject any with 0
maximum processes.

We do still allow a dedicated process only AFU to indicate that it
supports 0 contexts even though that is forbidden in the architecture,
as in that case we ignore the value and use 1 instead. This is just on
the off-chance that such a dedicated process AFU may exist (not that I
am aware of any), since their developers are less likely to have cared
about this value at all.
