Currently, the driver sets arch_has_sparse_bitmasks to false, causing
resctrl to require a contiguous bits in cache allocation masks. For
example, L3:0=3 is accepted, whereas L3:0=11 is rejected because its
set bits are non-contiguous.

The default should allow both contiguous and non-contiguous masks,
provided they satisfy the other mask validity checks. A contiguity
restriction should only be imposed when a specific hardware
implementation can't support sparse masks explicitly.

So I propose enabling sparse cache allocation bitmasks by default.
Thanks.
