> The MPAM driver represents a resctrl domain with a single structure,
> struct mpam_resctrl_dom, that holds both a control domain and a
> monitoring domain. On a system that supports both allocation and
> monitoring, one instance is created for each domain and its two
> domains are added to the resource's control and monitoring domain
> lists.
> 
> Holding both domains in one structure requires control and monitoring
> to be done at the same scope, and ties each control domain to a
> monitoring domain. This does not fit the proposed support for multiple
> controls per resource [1]. There, each control of a resource, for
> example a "min" and a "max" memory bandwidth control, has its own list
> of control domains while the resource keeps a single list of
> monitoring domains. With one structure for both, every control domain
> would come with a monitoring domain of its own, which does not reflect
> the resource.
> 
> This series gives control and monitoring domains their own structures,
> set up and torn down independently as CPUs come online and go offline,
> in preparation for supporting multiple controls per resource. Along
> the way it stops failing CPU online when a domain cannot be set up,
> and adds checks when setting up a monitoring domain.
> 
>   1-2   Preparatory cleanups of domain allocation

Hi Reinette,

I tested it on a QEMU with MPAM rebased on v7.3-rc6 and all pass:

1、Resctrl mounts，L3/L2 each report 32 closids (control IDs)
2、Cache and memory bandwidth controls
3、Priority, min, max, option and hard-limit: write, read back, and the

   emulated hardware shows the same value
4、CDP mode and usage/bandwidth counters
5、All builds pass without warnings: arm64/x86_64, debug on/off,
   self-tests on/off, resctrl off, ACPI off
