 boots, and may additionally require that the OS not change the decode
 settings. This property is indicated by the cxl_decoder_is_locked() API.
 
+When a decoder is associated with a region cxl_decoder_get_region()
+returns that region object. Note that it is only applicable to switch
+and endpoint decoders as root decoders have a 1:N relationship with
+regions.  Use cxl_region_foreach() for the similar functionality for

 ==== TARGETS
 A root or switch level decoder takes an SPA (system-physical-address) as
 input and routes it to a downstream port. Which downstream port depends
