Subject: [PATCH mpam mpam/snapshot/v6.14-rc1 2/5] arm_mpam: Add limitation for the Narrow-PARTID feature

Because it needs to support mixed systems that include MSCs with and
without Narrow-PARTID support, there are the following incompatible
control issues.

If an MSC does not support Narrow-PARTID and its control method is not of
the "partition bitmap" type, then delivering the resctrl control group
configuration across multiple PARTIDs will change the user's expected
behavior.

Currently, there is no way to solve this problem by programming different
control values simply, so here decide to restrict the usage scenarios of
this feature. When we find that the MATA MSC does not support the
Narrow-PARTID feature, the driver will disable the feature, which means
get_num_reqpartid() directly returns the number of intPARTIDs.
