Subject: [PATCH v9 21/26] x86/resctrl: Report "Unassigned" for MBM events in mbm_cntr_assign mode

In mbm_cntr_assign mode, the hardware counter should be assigned to read
the MBM events.

Report "Unassigned" in case the user attempts to read the events without
assigning the counter.

Signed-off-by: Babu Moger <babu.moger@....com>
---
v9: Used is_mbm_event() to check the event type.
    Minor user documentation update.

v8: Used MBM_EVENT_ARRAY_INDEX to get the index for the MBM event.
    Documentation update to make the text generic.

v7: Moved the documentation under "mon_data".
    Updated the text little bit.

v6: Added more explaination in the resctrl.rst
    Added checks to detect "Unassigned" before reading RMID.

v5: New patch.
