x86/resctrl: Configure mbm_event mode if supported

Configure mbm_event mode on AMD platforms. On AMD platforms, it is
recommended to use the mbm_event mode, if supported, to prevent the
hardware from resetting counters between reads. This can result in
misleading values or display "Unavailable" if no counter is assigned
to the event.

Enable mbm_event mode, known as ABMC (Assignable Bandwidth Monitoring
Counters) on AMD, by default if the system supports it.

Update ABMC across all logical processors within the resctrl domain to
ensure proper functionality.
