Needs imperative tone ... "Release the global counter ..."

Not sure ... maybe "Unassign a hardware counter associated with @evtid from
the domain and the group."?

> + * Counter will be unassigned in all the domains if rdt_mon_domain is NULL

Please use imperative tone: "Unassign the counter from all the domains ...."

> + * else the counter will be assigned to specific domain.

copy&paste error?
"assigned to specific domain" -> "unassign from specific domain"?

> + * Global counter will be freed once it is unassigned from all the domains.

Needs imperative tone.

Please see comment to previous patch about the duplicate snippets. Snippets can be
replaced with single function that also resets architectural state.
