Subject: [PATCH 4/4] x86/resctrl: Clean up unused function parameter in mkdir path

Previous patch ("x86/resctrl: Fix a deadlock due to inaccurate
active reference of kernfs node") changed the argument to
rdtgroup_kn_lock_live()/rdtgroup_kn_unlock() within mkdir_rdt_prepare().
That change resulted in an unused function parameter to
mkdir_rdt_prepare().

Clean up unused function parameter in mkdir_rdt_prepare() and its
callers rdtgroup_mkdir_mon() and rdtgroup_mkdir_ctrl_mon().
