[PATCH v8 32/32] x86,fs/resctrl: Update Documentation for package events

[Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>]

Each "mon_data" directory is now divided between L3 events and package
events.

The "info/PERF_PKG_MON" directory contains parameters for perf events.

+Debugfs
+=======
+In addition to the use of debugfs for tracing of pseudo-locking
+performance, architecture code may create debugfs directories
+associated with monitoring features for a specific resource.
+
+The full pathname for these is in the form:
+
+    /sys/kernel/debug/resctrl/info/{resource_name}_MON/{arch}/

+	This counts the number of times that this aggregator
