x86/resctrl: Correct MBM total and local values
Intel Memory Bandwidth Monitoring (MBM) counters may report system memory bandwidth incorrectly on some Intel processors. The errata SKX99 for Skylake server, BDF102 for Broadwell server, and the correction factor table are documented in Documentation/x86/resctrl.rst. Intel MBM counters track metrics according to the assigned Resource Monitor ID (RMID) for that logical core. The IA32_QM_CTR register (MSR 0xC8E) used to report these metrics, may report incorrect system bandwidth for certain RMID values. Due to the errata, system memory bandwidth may not match what is reported. To work around the errata, correct MBM total and local readings using a correction factor table. If rmid > rmid threshold, MBM total and local values should be multiplied by the correction factor.
