Subject: [PATCH RESEND v7 0/2] selftests/resctrl: Bug fix and optimization

Write_schemata() uses fprintf() to write a bitmask into a schemata file
inside resctrl FS. It checks fprintf() return value but it doesn't check
fclose() return value. Error codes from fprintf() such as write errors,
are buffered and flushed back to the user only after fclose() is executed
which means any invalid bitmask can be written into the schemata file.

Rewrite write_schemata() to use syscalls instead of stdio file
operations to avoid the buffering.

The resctrlfs.c defines functions that interact with the resctrl FS
while resctrl_val.c defines functions that perform measurements on
the cache. Run_benchmark() fits logically into the second file before
resctrl_val() that uses it.

Move run_benchmark() from resctrlfs.c to resctrl_val.c and remove
redundant part of the kernel-doc comment. Make run_benchmark() static
and remove it from the header file.

Patch series is based on [1] which is based on [2] which are based on
kselftest next branch.
