x86/resctrl: Fix uninitialized memory read when last CPU of domain goes offline
Tony encountered this OOPS when the last CPU of a domain goes
offline while running a kernel built with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page

</TASK>
The NULL pointer dereference is encountered while searching for another
online CPU in the domain (of which there are none) that can be used to
run the MBM overflow handler.
Because the kernel is configured with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL the search for
another CPU (in its effort to prefer those CPUs that aren't marked
nohz_full) consults the mask representing the nohz_full CPUs,
tick_nohz_full_mask. On a kernel with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y
tick_nohz_full_mask is not allocated unless the kernel is booted with
the "nohz_full=" parameter and because of that any access to
tick_nohz_full_mask needs to be guarded with tick_nohz_full_enabled().
Replace the IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL) with tick_nohz_full_enabled().
The latter ensures tick_nohz_full_mask can be accessed safely and can be
used whether kernel is built with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL enabled or not.
[ Use Ingo's suggestion that combines the two NO_HZ checks into one. ]
