Please do something with your email client. This is very confusing.

To be consistent with other names in the directory, name should be
resctl-ui.txt at the very least.

Plus the "ui" part is redundant, and false. This is kernel-userspace
interface. Not user interface. So resctl.txt would be a better name.
