  Add the new AMD feature X86_FEATURE_SMBA. With this feature, the QOS
enforcement policies can be applied to external slow memory connected
to the host. QOS enforcement is accomplished by assigning a Class Of
Service (COS) to a processor and specifying allocations or limits for
that COS for each resource to be allocated.

This feature is identified by the CPUID Function 8000_0020_EBX_x0.

CPUID Fn8000_0020_EBX_x0 AMD Bandwidth Enforcement Feature Identifiers
(ECX=0)

Bits    Field Name      Description
2       L3SBE           L3 external slow memory bandwidth enforcement

CXL.memory is the only supported "slow" memory device. With the support
of SMBA feature, the hardware enables bandwidth allocation on the slow
memory devices. If there are multiple slow memory devices in the system,
then the throttling logic groups all the slow sources together and
applies the limit on them as a whole.

The presence of the SMBA feature(with CXL.memory) is independent of
whether slow memory device is actually present in the system. If there
is no slow memory in the system, then setting a SMBA limit will have no
impact on the performance of the system.

Presence of CXL memory can be identified by numactl command.

$numactl -H
available: 2 nodes (0-1)
node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
node 0 size: 63678 MB node 0 free: 59542 MB
node 1 cpus:
node 1 size: 16122 MB
node 1 free: 15627 MB
node distances:
node   0   1
   0:  10  50
   1:  50  10

CPU list for CXL memory will be empty. The cpu-cxl node distance is
greater than cpu-to-cpu distances. Node 1 has the CXL memory in this
case. CXL memory can also be identified using ACPI SRAT table and
memory maps.

Feature description is available in the specification, "AMD64
Technology Platform Quality of Service Extensions, Revision: 1.03
Publication # 56375 Revision: 1.03 Issue Date: February 2022".
