Using resctrl_get_default_ctrl() in the architecture code like this seems awkward in
the way that the caller depends on resctrl_get_default_ctrl() returning a bitmask, thus
requiring caller to be familiar with internals of function called.

I wonder if returning MAX_MBA_BW directly would not be more appropriate here ...
or returning r->membw.max_bw and doing so in previous patch.

What is criteria for caller to decide between using resctrl_get_default_ctrl() or
computing the bitmask self? Most callers already seem to be using
resctrl_get_default_ctrl() with clear expectation that it will return
a bitmask or not so it is not obvious why some callers needing bitmask
use resctrl_get_default_ctrl() while this caller compute bitmask self.

While the function is "rdt_default_ctrl_show()" the file is "cbm_mask"
and so here also resctrl_get_default_ctrl() is implicitly assumed to
return only a bitmask.

Using resctrl_get_default_ctrl() only seems appropriate when setting or staging
the register values where the value returned is not further manipulated with
assumptions regarding its format.
