Subject: [PATCH V4 08/38] x86/intel_rdt: Introduce new "exclusive" mode
At the moment all allocations are shareable. There is no way for a user
to designate that an allocation associated with a resource group cannot be
shared by another.
Introduce the new mode "exclusive". When a resource group is marked as
such it implies that no overlap is allowed between its allocation and that
of another resource group.
