[PATCH v4 09/29] selftests/resctrl: Create cache_portion_size() helper

From: Ilpo Järvinen
Date: Fri Dec 15 2023 - 10:07:37 EST


CAT and CMT tests calculate size of the cache portion for the n-bits
cache allocation on their own.

Add cache_portion_size() helper that calculates size of the cache
portion for the given number of bits and use it to replace the existing
span calculations. This also prepares for the new CAT test that will
need to determine the size of the cache portion also during results
processing.

Rename also 'cache_size' local variables to 'cache_total_size' to
prevent misinterpretations.
