[PATCH v2 0/3] x86/resctrl: Add "*" shorthand to set minimum io_alloc CBM for all domains

[Aaron Tomlin <atomlin@atomlin.com>]

Hi Babu, Tony, Reinette,

This series was rebased on linus/master since commit 187d0801404f (tag
v6.18-12991-g187d0801404f).

As previously discussed [1], a special domain ID selector "*" has been
introduced for io_alloc_cbm that allows setting the CBM of each cache
domain to its minimum number of consecutive bits in a single operation. For
example, writing "*=0" to /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3/io_alloc_cbm programs
each domain's CBM to the hardware-defined minimum, greatly simplifying
automation and management tasks. The user is required to specify the
correct minimum stored in /sys/fs/resctrl/info/L3/min_cbm_bits.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Changes since v1 [2]:

 - Updated each helper for consistency (Babu Moger)
 - Refactored the loop logic in function resctrl_io_alloc_parse_line()
   to improve readability
 - Added inline keyword to each helper
 - Added inline keyword to function parse_domain_cbm()
