[v2,2/2] x86/resctrl: Avoid redundant counter read in __mon_event_count()
Commit Message
__mon_event_count() does the per-RMID, per-domain work for
user-initiated event count reads and the initialization of new monitor
groups.
In the initialization case, after resctrl_arch_reset_rmid() calls
__rmid_read() to record an initial count for a new monitor group, it
immediately calls resctrl_arch_rmid_read(). This re-read of the hardware
counter is unnecessary.
Following return from resctrl_arch_reset_rmid(), just clear the
mbm_state and return.
Also, move the mbm_state lookup into the rr->first case, as it's not
needed for regular event count reads: the QOS_L3_OCCUP_EVENT_ID case was
redundant with the accumulating logic at the end of the function.

Starting the above with "Also" creates impression that two logical
changes are merged into a single patch. Since this is not the case you
can avoid the impression with something like:
Following return from resctrl_arch_reset_rmid(), just clear the
mbm_state and return. This involves moving the mbm_state lookup into
the rr->first case, as it's not needed for regular event count reads:
the QOS_L3_OCCUP_EVENT_ID case was redundant with the accumulating logic
at the end of the function.

Thank you very much.
