Resctrl is a filesystem interface to hardware that provides cache
allocation policy and bandwidth control for groups of tasks or CPUs.
To support more than one architecture, resctrl needs to live in /fs/.
Move the code that is concerned with the filesystem interface to
/fs/resctrl.

The resctrl documentation is titled "User Interface for Resource Control
feature".
Once the documentation follows the code in a move to the filesystem, this
appears in the list of filesystems, but doesn't contain the name of the
filesystem, making it hard to find.
Add 'resctrl' to the title.

Add a section to document a new read/write file that shows/sets the memory

With Sub-NUMA Cluster (SNC) mode enabled, the scope of monitoring resources
is per-NODE instead of per-L3 cache. Backwards compatibility is maintained
by providing files in the mon_L3_XX directories that sum event counts
for all SNC nodes sharing an L3 cache.
New files provide per-SNC node event counts.
Users should be aware that SNC mode also affects the amount of L3 cache
available for allocation within each SNC node.

In our production environment, after removing monitor groups, those
unused RMIDs get stuck in the limbo list forever because their
llc_occupancy is always larger than the threshold. But the unused RMIDs
can be successfully freed by turning up the threshold.
In order to know how much the threshold should be, perf can be used to
acquire the llc_occupancy of RMIDs in each rdt domain.
Instead of using perf tool to track llc_occupancy and filter the log
manually, it is more convenient for users to use tracepoint to do this
work. So add a new tracepoint that shows the llc_occupancy of busy RMIDs
when scanning the limbo list.

The memory bandwidth software controller uses 2^20 units rather than
10^6. See mbm_bw_count() which computes bandwidth using the "SZ_1M"
Linux define for 0x00100000.
Update the documentation to use MiB when describing this feature.
It's too late to fix the mount option "mba_MBps" as that is now an
established user interface.

In x86, hardware uses RMID to identify a monitoring group. When a user
creates a monitor group these details are not visible. These details
can help resctrl debugging.
Add RMID(mon_hw_id) to the monitor groups display in the resctrl interface.
Users can see these details when resctrl is mounted with "-o debug" option.
Add RFTYPE_MON_BASE that complements existing RFTYPE_CTRL_BASE and
represents files belonging to monitoring groups.
Other architectures do not use "RMID". Use the name mon_hw_id to refer
to "RMID" in an effort to keep the naming generic.
For example:
$cat /sys/fs/resctrl/mon_groups/mon_grp1/mon_hw_id

The resctrl task assignment for monitor or control group needs to be
done one at a time. For example:
$mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/
$mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1
$echo 123 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
$echo 456 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
$echo 789 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
This is not user-friendly when dealing with hundreds of tasks.
Support multiple task assignment in one command with tasks ids separated
by commas. For example:
$echo 123,456,789 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks

Move the x86 documentation under Documentation/arch/ as a way of cleaning
up the top-level directory and making the structure of our docs more
closely match the structure of the source directories it describes.
All in-kernel references to the old paths have been updated.
