So, remove static and make it a routine shared between core/features.c
and core/edac.c.

Simply refactor it into something generic that the cxl-edac and
cxl-fwctl path can share:

struct cxl_feat_entry *
cxl_feature_info(struct cxl_features_state *cxlfs, const uuid_t *uuid)

...with the header in drivers/cxl/core/core.h where other cross-core
object helpers are defined.
