Could you please clarify how this works when ABMC state is changed on
one CPU in a domain vs all (as done in this patch) CPUs of a domain? In this
patch it is clear that all hardware counters are reset and consequently
the architectural state maintained by resctrl is reset also. Later, when
the code is added to handle CPU online I see that ABMC state is changed
on a new online CPU but I do not see matching reset of architectural state.
(more in that patch later)

"architectural state" -> "architectural state maintained by resctrl"

"so that reading of hardware counter" -> "so that reading of the/a(?)
hardware counter"

This function will be called by resctrl fs code. Please contain the "abmc" naming to the
x86 architecture code and let resctrl fs just refer to it as "mbm_assign"/"mbm_cntr_assign".
