    selftests/resctrl: Don't hard code value of "no_of_bits" variable · 09a67934

    Cache related tests (like CAT and CMT) depend on a variable called
    no_of_bits to run. no_of_bits defines the number of contiguous bits
    that should be set in the CBM mask and a user can pass a value for
    no_of_bits using -n command line argument. If a user hasn't passed any
    value, it defaults to 5 (randomly chosen value).
    
    Hard coding no_of_bits to 5 will make the cache tests fail to run on
    systems that support maximum cbm mask that is less than or equal to 5 bits.
    Hence, don't hard code no_of_bits value.
    
    If a user passes a value for "no_of_bits" using -n option, use it.
    Otherwise, no_of_bits is equal to half of the maximum number of bits in
    the cbm mask.
    
    Please note that CMT test is still hard coded to 5 bits. It will change in
    subsequent patches that change CMT test.
