Subject: [PATCH v2] x86/resctrl: Fix default monitoring groups reporting

From: Babu Moger <Babu.Moger@....com>

Creating a new sub monitoring group in the root /sys/fs/resctrl leads to
getting the "Unavailable" value for mbm_total_bytes and mbm_local_bytes
on the entire filesystem.

Steps to reproduce.
1. #mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/

2. #cd /sys/fs/resctrl/

3. #cat mon_data/mon_L3_00/mbm_total_bytes
   23189832

4. #mkdir mon_groups/test1 (create sub monitor group)

5. #cat mon_data/mon_L3_00/mbm_total_bytes
   Unavailable

When a new monitoring group is created, a new RMID is assigned to the new
group. But the RMID is not active yet. When the events are read on the new
RMID, it is expected to report the status as "Unavailable".

When the user reads the events on the default monitoring group with
multiple subgroups, the events on all sub groups are consolidated together.
Currently, if any of the RMID reads report as "Unavailable", then
everything will be reported as "Unavailable".

Fix the issue by discarding the "Unavailable" reads and reporting all the
successful RMID reads. This is not a problem on Intel systems as Intel
reports 0 on Inactive RMIDs.
