Subject: [PATCH v3 01/16] selftests/resctrl: Open get_mem_bw_imc() fd for loops

get_mem_bw_imc() handles fds in a for loop but close() is based on two
fixed indexes READ and WRITE.

Open code all for loops to READ+WRITE entries for clarity.

v3:
- Rework entirely, use open coding instead of for loops for clarity

The above highlights how the error checking is broken here and
leaving this code like this until the later fix arrives is confusing (to me).
Could you please squash "selftests/resctrl: Fix closing IMC fds on error" into this
patch?

Even so, I do not think that this addresses all the issues with error handling
surrounding these fds.
If I understand correctly these fds are currently (and remains to be after this
series) closed within get_mem_bw_imc(). In this series there seems to be
many occasions where open_perf_event() succeeds but later failures encountered
before get_mem_bw_imc() results in these fds not being cleaned up. What do you think of
having a perf_close_imc_mem_bw() to match with perf_open_imc_mem_bw() that
closes the fds and can be called from within get_mem_bw_imc() as well as
earlier if a failure is encountered between perf_open_imc_mem_bw()
and get_mem_bw_imc()?
