[RFC PATCH v3 15/17] x86/resctrl: Introduce the interface switch between ABMC and legacy_mbm

From: Babu Moger
Date: Thu Mar 28 2024 - 21:11:07 EST


Introduce rdtgroup_mbm_assign_write to switch between ABMC and legacy_mbm.

By default ABMC is enabled on resctrl mount if the feature is available.
However, user will have the option to go back to legacy_mbm if required.
