This complicates the interface between the architecture code and ... ?

This changes significantly more than just where the mbps_val array is
hosted. It also changes how the life cycle of this array is managed.
Previously it followed the domain, whether mba_sc was enabled or not.
Now that it depends on mba_sc it is managed quite differently.
Could the changelog be upfront about this change and its motivation?
Stating this would make this much easier to review and also the later
patches where the original mbps_val initialization code is removed
without replacement.

Could this be done symmetrically? That is, allocate in
resctrl_online_domain() and free in resctrl_offline_domain().

Could this inherit some of the useful kerneldoc associated with the
mbps_val being replaced? That is, it exists when mba_sc is enabled and
contains bandwidth values in MBps.
