The memory bandwidth software controller uses 2^20 units rather than
10^6. See mbm_bw_count() which computes bandwidth using the "SZ_1M"
Linux define for 0x00100000.
Update the documentation to use MiB when describing this feature.
It's too late to fix the mount option "mba_MBps" as that is now an
established user interface.

In x86, hardware uses RMID to identify a monitoring group. When a user
creates a monitor group these details are not visible. These details
can help resctrl debugging.
Add RMID(mon_hw_id) to the monitor groups display in the resctrl interface.
Users can see these details when resctrl is mounted with "-o debug" option.
Add RFTYPE_MON_BASE that complements existing RFTYPE_CTRL_BASE and
represents files belonging to monitoring groups.
Other architectures do not use "RMID". Use the name mon_hw_id to refer
to "RMID" in an effort to keep the naming generic.
For example:
$cat /sys/fs/resctrl/mon_groups/mon_grp1/mon_hw_id

The resctrl task assignment for monitor or control group needs to be
done one at a time. For example:
$mount -t resctrl resctrl /sys/fs/resctrl/
$mkdir /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1
$echo 123 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
$echo 456 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
$echo 789 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks
This is not user-friendly when dealing with hundreds of tasks.
Support multiple task assignment in one command with tasks ids separated
by commas. For example:
$echo 123,456,789 > /sys/fs/resctrl/ctrl_grp1/tasks

Move the x86 documentation under Documentation/arch/ as a way of cleaning
up the top-level directory and making the structure of our docs more
closely match the structure of the source directories it describes.
All in-kernel references to the old paths have been updated.
