I am sorry Tony, this reverse-fir breakage slipped through. I only noticed it after
trying to see how best to present all the pending work to x86 maintainers. Could
you please send a fixup with this addressed? After that I am planning to propose its
inclusion among all the other pending resctrl fixes followed by the SNC work. The SNC
work will need a rebase starting with this snippet, unless you see an easier way forward?
