[PATCH v11 04/10] x86/resctrl: Add comments on RFTYPE flags hierarchy

[Babu Moger <babu.moger@amd.com>]

resctrl uses RFTYPE flags for creating resctrl directory structure.

Definitions and directory structures are not documented. Add
comments to improve the readability and help future additions.

  * Define the file type flags for base and info directories.

+ *	b. base

+ * /sys/fs/resctrl/

+ *	--> info (Top level directory named "info". Contains files that

+ *	--> base (Root directory associated with default resource group
+ *		  as well as directories created by user for MON and CTRL
+ *		  groups. Contains files to interact with MON and CTRL
+ *		  groups.)
+ *
+ *	Note: resctrl uses flags for files, not for directories.
+ *	      Directories are created based on the resource type. Added
+ *	      directories below for better understanding.
