Subject and changelog claims this introduces an interface, there is no new
resctrl interface introduced here. Can this be more specific?

(please use consistent parameter ordering)

This could be -ENOENT?

mbm_cntr_get() seems to be essentially a duplicate of mbm_cntr_assigned() that returns
actual counter ID instrad of true/false. Could only one be used?

(same comment as previous patch about consistency in referring to function
parameters)

It seems unnecessary to loop over array twice here. mbm_cntr_assigned() seems
unnecessary. Return value of mbm_cntr_get() can be used to determine if it
is assigned or not?

... and by providing cntr_id to mbm_cntr_free() another unnecessary loop can be avoided.
