Subject: [PATCH v6 07/21] x86/resctrl: Abstract and use supports_mba_mbps()

To determine whether the mba_MBps option to resctrl should be supported,
resctrl tests the boot CPUs' x86_vendor.

This isn't portable, and needs abstracting behind a helper so this check
can be part of the filesystem code that moves to /fs/.

Re-use the tests set_mba_sc() does to determine if the mba_sc is supported
on this system. An 'alloc_capable' test is added so that support for the
controls isn't implied by the 'delay_linear' property, which is always
true for MPAM. Because mbm_update() only update mba_sc if the mbm_local
counters are enabled, supports_mba_mbps() checks is_mbm_local_enabled().
(instead of using is_mbm_enabled(), which checks both)

Changes since v5:
 * Changed supports_mba_mbps() to use is_mbm_local_enabled()

Changes since v3:
 * Added use in resctrl_online_domain()

Changes since v1:
 * Capitalisation
 * Added MPAM example in commit message
 * Fixed supports_mba_mbps() logic error in rdt_parse_param()
