[PATCH v12 04/10] x86/resctrl: Add comments on RFTYPE flags hierarchy

[Babu Moger <babu.moger@amd.com>]

resctrl uses RFTYPE flags for creating resctrl directory structure.

Definitions and directory structures are not documented. Add
comments to improve the readability and help future additions.

+RESCTRL filesystem implementation notes
+=======================================
+RESCTRL filesystem has two main components
+	a. info
+	b. base
+
+/sys/fs/resctrl/
+	|
+	--> info (Top level directory named "info". Contains files that
+	|	  provide details on control and monitoring resources)
+	|
+	--> base (Root directory associated with default resource group
+		  as well as directories created by user for MON and CTRL
+		  groups. Contains files to interact with MON and CTRL
+		  groups)
+
+	Note: resctrl uses flags for files, not for directories.
+	      Directories are created based on the resource type. Added
+	      directories below for better understanding. The RFTYPE flags
+	      are defined in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/internal.h.
