Subject: [PATCH V3 08/39] x86/intel_rdt: Introduce new "exclusive" mode

Precedence: bulk

At the moment all allocations are shareable. There is no way for a user
to designate that an allocation associated with a resource group cannot be
shared by another.

Introduce the new mode "exclusive". When a resource group is marked as
such it implies that no overlap is allowed between its allocation and that
of another resource group.
