Research direction
Start by inspecting the existing CPU LAPACK integrations and how MLX previously bound MPS matmul. Compare the CPU path with the linked MPS Cholesky option and confirm the supported API and validation expectations. Done means Cholesky decomposition is available through the appropriate CPU and, if adopted, GPU path.
