x86/intel_rdt: Add mkdir to resctrl file system Resource control groups are represented as directories in the resctrl file system. The root directory describes the default resources available to tasks that have not been assigned specific resources. Other directories can be created at the root level to make new resource groups. It is not permitted to make directories within other directories. Hardware uses a CLOSID (Class of service ID) to determine which resource limits are currently in effect. The exact number available is enumerated by CPUID leaf 0x10, but on current implementations it is a small number. We implement a simple bitmask allocator for CLOSIDs. Each resource control group uses one CLOSID, which limits the total number of directories that can be created. Resource groups can be removed using rmdir.
