x86/resctrl: Add interface to write mbm_local_bytes_config



The event configuration for mbm_local_bytes can be changed by the
user by writing to the configuration file
/sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_local_bytes_config.

The event configuration settings are domain specific and will affect all
the CPUs in the domain.

Following are the types of events supported:

  ====  ===========================================================
  Bits   Description
  ====  ===========================================================
  6      Dirty Victims from the QOS domain to all types of memory
  5      Reads to slow memory in the non-local NUMA domain
  4      Reads to slow memory in the local NUMA domain
  3      Non-temporal writes to non-local NUMA domain
  2      Non-temporal writes to local NUMA domain
  1      Reads to memory in the non-local NUMA domain
  0      Reads to memory in the local NUMA domain
  ====  ===========================================================

For example, to change the mbm_local_bytes_config to count all the non-temporal
writes on domain 0, the bits 2 and 3 needs to be set which is 1100b (in hex
0xc).
Run the command:

  $echo  0=0xc > /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_local_bytes_config

To change the mbm_local_bytes to count only reads to local NUMA domain 1,
the bit 0 needs to be set which 1b (in hex 0x1). Run the command:

  $echo  1=0x1 > /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3_MON/mbm_local_bytes_config
