Subject: [PATCH v22 00/18] Add support for Sub-NUMA cluster (SNC) systems

This series based on top of tip x86/cache commit f385f0246394
("x86/resctrl: Replace open coded cacheinfo searches")

The Sub-NUMA cluster feature on some Intel processors partitions the CPUs
that share an L3 cache into two or more sets. This plays havoc with the
Resource Director Technology (RDT) monitoring features.  Prior to this
patch Intel has advised that SNC and RDT are incompatible.

Some of these CPUs support an MSR that can partition the RMID counters
in the same way. This allows monitoring features to be used. Legacy
monitoring files provide the sum of counters from each SNC node for
backwards compatibility. Additional  files per SNC node provide details
per node.

Memory bandwidth allocation features continue to operate at
the scope of the L3 cache.

L3 cache occupancy and allocation operate on the portion of
L3 cache available for each SNC node.

Changes since v21: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240621223859.43471-1-tony.luck@intel.com/

1-6	No change
7-8	Added Reinette reviewed-by tag
9	s/contains the sum/includes the sum/ in struct rmid_read kerneldoc
	Add initializer = {0} to all on-stack declarations of struct
	rmid_read (Reinette comment against patch 14, but applied here
	when new field added that causes the ambguity about which fields
	will be consumed). Drop redundant assignmnets of 0/NULL/false
	to members of the structure.
10	Trivial refactor casued by addition of "= {0}" in part 9.
11	No change
12	Added Reinette reviewed-by tag
13	Replaced comment referencing SNC mode with more generic text
	suggested by Reinette.
	Added Reinette reviewed-by tag.
14	s/across all SNC domains/across all SNC domains/ in comment
	in rdtgroup_mondata_show()
	Dropped "rr.ci = NULL;". Not needed as struct is cleared by compiler.
15	Fix comment on return value from __mon_event_count()
16	Added Reinette reviewed-by tag
17-18	No change

  x86/resctrl: Block use of mba_MBps mount option on Sub-NUMA Cluster
    (SNC) systems
  x86/resctrl: Prepare for new Sub-NUMA Cluster (SNC) monitor files
  x86/resctrl: Add a new field to struct rmid_read for summation of
    domains
  x86/resctrl: Refactor mkdir_mondata_subdir() with a helper function
  x86/resctrl: Allocate a new field in union mon_data_bits
