[RFC PATCH 26/31] x86/resctrl: Allow control writes from any CPU for MMIO controllers

[Chen Yu <yu.c.chen@intel.com>]

Programming a control that lives in domain-local MSR space must run on a
CPU that belongs to the target domain, so resctrl_arch_update_domains()
issues the hw_update() via an IPI. MMIO based controls (e.g. the ERDT
MARC registers) have no such affinity requirement and can be programmed
from the current CPU, making the IPI pure overhead.

Introduce RESCTRL_CTRL_FLAG_ANY_CPU to describe a control whose hardware
can be programmed from any CPU, mirroring the mon_evt::any_cpu flag used
on the monitoring read path. Set it on the MARC controllers at creation
time.
