Intel CPUs expect the cache bitmap provided by user-space to have on a
single span of 1s, whereas AMD can support bitmaps like 0xf00f. Arm's
MPAM support also allows sparse bitmaps.
Similarly, Intel CPUs check at least one bit set, whereas AMD CPUs are
quite happy with an empty bitmap. Arm's MPAM allows an empty bitmap.
To move resctrl out to /fs/, platform differences like this need to be
explained.
Add two resource properties arch_has_{empty,sparse}_bitmaps. Test these
around the relevant parts of cbm_validate().
Merging the validate calls causes AMD to gain the min_cbm_bits test
needed for Haswell, but as it always sets this value to 1, it will never
match.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
