Subject: [PATCH v3 2/4] x86/resctrl: Enable non-contiguous CBMs in Intel CAT

The setting for non-contiguous 1s support in Intel CAT is
hardcoded to false. On these systems, writing non-contiguous
1s into the schemata file will fail before resctrl passes
the value to the hardware.

In Intel CAT CPUID.0x10.1:ECX[3] and CPUID.0x10.2:ECX[3] stopped
being reserved and now carry information about non-contiguous 1s
value support for L3 and L2 cache respectively. The CAT
capacity bitmask (CBM) supports a non-contiguous 1s value if
the bit is set.

Replace the hardcoded non-contiguous support value with
the support learned from the hardware. Add hardcoded non-contiguous
support value to Haswell probe since it can't make use of CPUID for
Cache allocation.

- Change patch subject to mention CBMs. (Babu)

Changelog v2:
- Rewrite part of a comment concerning Haswell. (Reinette)
