Hi x86 maintainers,

Could you please consider this series for inclusion?

This is the second resctrl series that is now ready for your
consideration. The other series is Babu's work [1] that has already
been reviewed by Boris and we await a new version.

There is a merge conflict between the two series. I assume from
conversation with Boris [2] that you will decide which series to merge
first and then the other can be rebased on top. Please let us know how
you prefer to manage this.

Thank you very much.

Reinette
