Thank you for your review. I have been working on a large overhaul to
the series in v4 and was about to send it. I finally realized the
sematic mismatch between resctl MB resource and what the RISC-V CBQRI
spec offers. I decided to create MB_MIN for reserved bandwidth and
MB_WGHT (weight) for shared bandwidth porpotional weight.

I didn't expect adding two new resources to be the best solution but I
wanted to offer something tangible to move the discussion forward. I
look forward to your proof of concept as I expect I can then build
proper support CBQRI bandwidth allocation (reservation and proportional
share) on top of that.

Thanks,
Drew
