I know but when constructing this series I had 2 options:

Either convert also this when changing validate_resctrl_feature_request() 
or remove this call entirely.

Given it's duplicate of the other CMT check, I chose to just remove it 
(which I'd do anyway). As patch 4/5 requires 3/5 which in turn requires 
this, this has to go stable if 4/5 goes too.
