Subject: [PATCH 6/6] x86/intel_rdt/mba_sc: Add support to dynamically update the memory b/w
The software controller uses the existing MBM overflow timer calls (once
per second currently) to read the bandwidth to ensure that always
"current b/w < user specified max b/w"
Similarly when we see that the current b/w is too low, we also try to
increase the b/w. We use a threshold b/w or a delta b/w which is
calculated dynamically to determine what is too low. OS then uses the
"IA32_MBA_THRTL_MSR" to change the b/w. The change itself is currently
linear and is in the increment of decrement of the "b/w granularity"
specified by the SKU. The values written to the MSR are also cached so
that we donot do a rdmsr for every 1s.
