cxl/memdev: fix deadlock in cxl_memdev_autoremove() on attach failure

cxl_memdev_autoremove() takes device_lock(&cxlmd->dev) via guard(device)
and then calls cxl_memdev_unregister() when the attach callback was
provided but cxl_mem_probe() failed to bind.

cxl_memdev_unregister() calls
  cdev_device_del()
    device_del()
      bus_remove_device()
        device_release_driver()

This path is reached when a driver uses the @attach parameter to
devm_cxl_add_memdev() and the CXL topology fails to enumerate (e.g.
DVSEC range registers decode outside platform-defined CXL ranges,
causing the endpoint port probe to fail).

Add cxl_memdev_attach_failed() to set the scope of the check correctly.
